I was worried about the same thing. Although it doesn't look like we're out of the woods yet until some ST and TT kits start getting developed.

Ahh who am I kidding? Just getting a few intakes is like pulling teeth

Vortech will no longer be using the Split Second box, it will be the Unichip Q from now on.

UPDATE FORM VORTECH!!!!

Taking longer than expected with dual intake !!. According to Vortech, they took all the measurements for the parts need, but it will take about to 4-6 wks before all the parts can be manufactured and/or orders to come-in.

i will post update as i find out more!!!

I just wonder if they're going to run dual CSC's, or a ton of piping to route the airflow from one. Dual superchargers for each side of the intake would be pretty kickass.

That would be amazing. I doubt there's room under the hood for two of those babies though.

I'm sure they won't run dual s/c's.

a little extra piping won't make the price all that much higher, 2 SC's would, but i seriously doubt they're doing that

Ask them what pulley they are gonna use.

And two superchargers would be totally retarded, that would cost like 60hp just to turn them!

In all honesty, the HR was made for a TT. A centrif SC or single turbo would be silly with all the plumbing.
