I think the main issue wont be that tuners won't be able to tune it, but more that they wont understand what is written, as it will be in Japanese.
You never know, they might also have compatibility issues between software, but i wouldn't have thought HKS would have that kind of problem.
I'm still impressed as to how quiet the kit is. When that guy started his car up, you could barely hear the supercharger. Stealth.

Anyone else think there would be software compatability issues or other problems?

I talked with HKS today about the Pro unit. There Test car with there Cams an EMS unit is doing around 450 Rwhp and 385 to 410 Tq. This is with a 10 lb pulley.
There is not release date on this unit. They just said keep looking at the site in about 2 months we may see something about the unit. From talking with them it looks like it will come with out a EMS unit and may be a 9 to 10 lb pulley. So the price will be lower.

Hope this helps a few of you out.

I will be happy when the kits are released and HKSUSA finally answers their phones--2 months for the complete kit seems excessive--I wonder if HKSUSA is having problems getting the one kit carb approved...
