update:
Here are some finished pictures of kit on our car all coated and polished! We are putting the motor back in tomorrow and working with Charlie to have the dual pump hanger done and in the car end of this week.
We are pleased to say we're partnering with Charlie and CJM and will offer our kit with their fuel system. You'll have the option of the CJM Stage 1, 2 or 3 fuel system(Duel pump hanger)
We also have the CJM Intake manifold (being polished right now) and we'll do some back to back testing when the car is up and running next week.
edit: only difference on production system will be the oil and water lines. To ensure fitment we'll be supplying braided lines, not the hardlines shown in the picture.
If anyone has any questions please let me know.

Btw, here are a couple of pics of the CJM intake all polished up

Very nice job guys. I'm curious on the pricing as I'm sure its a big nut. You would think some schedule 40 manis wouldn't add a rediculous amount of money percentage wise but The cost increase would still be there. Maybe you should jig it up and offer it as an option At any rate, I'm in for the resluts here. Things like this is what keeps me from picking up a 350 for a daily 
Very nice work!

I still have to talk to Charles about the top half of the intake. We make a completely customer supra intake, and it's could easily do this for the z as well. I think the lower half is going to be the expensive piece.
We have plans on making some different headers and placement to be able to fit twin 67's on this kit
Thanks again everyone for the compliments. I'm DYING to get this thing on the dyno, soon I promise!
We still are heavily focused on the supra market, however, we are growing the company to expand into this VQ market which we believe has HUGE potential.
