On another note we will be debuting the kit publicly at Zdayz 2017.

Over the next few months we will be developing the kit on our in house shop 370z. We will baseline the factory motor and then start with our stage 1 kit. We will start conservative on pulley and tune since this will be the first of its kind and we do not know the levels at which parts will begin to break. Luckily we have tons of motors on hand. We will document the weak points of our platform and build our kits accordingly. The stage 1 kit will be for the stock motor guys. The stage 2 will be for our built motor guys. one of the nice features is that you wont have to change the blower no matter your power levels... now we may look at a stage 3 based on a bigger blower setup but at that point we are talking 1000whp+ drag car...

In addition to this development we have already started at least 1 new hood design. There is another GT style hood that if needed will be made and we are sure people will be selling their hoods to buy it. The renderings look fantastic so far!!!

If you're serious about the CARB kit you might want to see if you can get by with stock injectors. Don't worry about HP at that level, just pass smog. Put all the right parts in it (AtoA AIT etc.) and make upgradeable with injectors and a tune only. That way we wouldn't be buying injectors twice and we could buy the tuning stuff separately. Put back the smog tune when needed and then back to real HP. Personally, I'd be ok if you could keep it under 2 hours DIY to swap back and forth between HP and Smog. Over 4 hours gets into the pain threshold.

Been contemplating the engine swap route but that's way into the pain area. Not to mention storing the smog engine.

Dude, you can't go FI on stock injectors. No kit does this and is not a requirement of carb. Stillen has bigger injectors and is carb.

One of the main requirements of carb is that it be a complete turn key kit with tune and everything. It all has to be included to gain carb approval.

And 2 hours to install a full FI kit? Are you kidding?

Main point is to make the start kit cheaper and not make people buy stuff twice. Like a flash from RJM and then have to go buy uprev. Same with the injectors, if you keep the maps the same, no need to flash. This is just an intermediary step to allow the kit to pass smog. Then you get your tuning SW and injectors and get your HP. Remap the injectors for smog when you need it. That way you don't buy anything twice. You also then swap between smog and HP setup with just swapping tunes. You need to make the smog kit stand-alone so you can sell it as a CARB legal setup. Maybe you could do it where you do the above and swap a pulley. A pulley is cheap enough to buy twice. To get CARB I think you have to demonstrate reduced emissions.

And it's 2 hours to swap between SMOG and HP. A tune swap is a couple of seconds, a pulley swap should be doable in 2 hours.

So you're saying this kit could be entered in the raffle drawing?

Lol we can dream can't we! They gave away $2k worth of product last year. They will probably do something along the same lines this year most likely.
