I just called them, they'll be coming out with a new designed high boost kit in the next month or so, no CARB cert. The base kit is still pending CARB cert, but they will not making more of those 'old' kits though. Sounds like they're still in business.

It's just skunk2.
I completely lost faith in that brand after what transpired over the past few years.
"CARB Pending" is 100% bullshit. Feel free to call CARB yourself and ask re: application. They never applied.

Skunk 2 took over KW
To the OP don’t lower the compression on the motor if your going to boost, don’t touch it at all. In the past before we learned what a uncracked motor could do there was a lot of exploration with aftermarket thicker hg and boost amounts etc and they typically just fail. Guys that get the right tune on these motors average 500whp on pump 92. 20psi+ reliably in a street car with doing no motor modification.
To the guy asking about how a turbo changes the characteristics compared to your SC. In a nutshell A typical turbo power band looks more like a v8 in comparison to your more stock linear power curve. Throw in a bit of boost lag/poor throttle response and to me you have a car that is difficult to modulate on a road course. I much prefer the power delivery on an sc, its like stock but just a lot more of it.
