You guys thought about relocating the fuse box to open up some room to maybe increase the lenght of the filter plumbing. Might even be able to fit a bigger filter.

also any word on a possible DBW kit?
yes I have looked at moving the Fuse box.

I even got in contact with boomslang to see if they can source the plugs to make a simple plug and play harness to move the Fuse box.


They have not contacted me in some time and I believe they gave up in trying to find the plugs.

Moving the Fuse box may end up being a requirement with the new manifold due to its larger size; just will need to wait and see.

On the DBW cars

SOT need to get some of these kits out there to help recover some of the prototyping cost over the past few years before they make another investment in a DBW kit.


99.9% of the hardware is unchanged but the main prototyping cost on the DBW kit is developing the 3

Still hoping to get one of these, but since my car goes down for the winter and I don't quite have it all in cash I wait until spring. If more "upgrades" are developed by then, fantastic.

Mark,

I was going to get the U-tune because I have the EMU and boomslang harness. Did the harness require any modification for the lowering of VTEC in the basemap and will instructions be availible to do so for those that have emu installed already?

That's understandable, but it may take them some time to get most of their money back. From what I see they aren't doing much marketing to get the word out about there kit other then a view forums posts on a couple forums.

I think there needs to be a new post made in the FI section by the company themselves explaining the kit.

How it works.
Results so far.
Pricing.
Available upgrades.
Restrictions.
Etc.

Basically answer the peoples questions before they are even asked to them. Lay it all out on the table, and let them decide if it's good for them. I bet they'll see some calls coming in quick.

Just my opinion.

Since neither SOT or SXM are not currently site sponsors; what they can post is very limited.

I have been posting as much as I can on this forum with out breaking the rules.

The last thing I want to do is get this thread deleted it has a wealth of information and history all though it be spread through multiple posts.


Have you checked the other forum the info you are looking for is most likely over there.

HvRRZ I think this is something like what you are looking for.





The MP62 Supercharger & Supporting Hardware.
SOT supercharger kit uses the Magnuson MP62 supercharger for it

I have to say that I do not agree with a lot of the rules here. so=pecially in terms of having the community know about new products available for the S, and the fact that all they seem to try to do is make oyu become a member for everything.

That's perfect, and I've already seen that on s2kca, but I don't think it's ever been posted here. Maybe really the only thing lacking in getting peoples interest is their presence. Hopefully they can become a sponser in the near future.

Mark,

Hearing that only one kit has been paid for in full needs to ring a bell to these guys! Thier research/development and parts on hand are considerable costs that at this rate will never be paid off

Every new Comptech, Vortech, Science of Speed, KRAFTWERKS supercharger kit or even all new turbo kits built/sold by Greddy, InlinePro, LoveFag, Elda, UR, Rev Hard, HP Performance, Speedcraft, P-Fab, Full Race, or even Ebay! sells is one forced induction kit that SOT had a potential sale with......

I've been following this kit for the last two years. I cannot say that I am dissapointed with what I DO know about this kit. It seems great! What I DO know, unfortunatly, is simply not enough to purchase this kit.

I'm certain that there are guys (like me) with 6k burning a hole in thier pocket wanting something that outperforms the ordinary, is mantainence-friendly, and is different.... Its the ONLY one of its kind- That says something right there! The market is ready for this and it has the potential to transform the "unknowledgable"

I think I speak for the guys here who have been following. Give us some updated pictures, in car videos, track videos....... Give us a video of an SOT charged S2000 blowing the doors off of a Comptech, Greddy, or Kraftwerks-charged S2000! This stuff is FREE. Make a NEW post topic every week with different videos or pics. Lets keep something of SOT on the first page in the FI forum. Get the rest of the board as excited as some of us are here. Take a look at Kraftwerks' topics. They are 20+ pages long! There are several parts to them as well because there is such a following here, and it is WELL MARKETED by the Jackson's!

I know this kit is exciting without even owning one! ANY roots-blown car/truck is a blast! Most people on this board and people in general dont understand this. BRING THE EXCITEMENT TO THIS BOARD, get the word OUT (its been hiding)

I know you are only one man, Mark. And you are our informational guy who has courteously supplied us with the information that we do have. You gotta push them guys at SOT so you can see this kit you have worked so hard on under the hoods of S2000's all across this board

Its been a long day at work......

There are a ton of owners that want a kit, they just want to make sure the kit is on the shelves ready to go out before they pay in full.
in less then 24 hrs after the post when up on the other sit SXM told me that there phone was ringing off the hook for this kit.

new manifold should be here Friday.


However I may have lost a coil pack on the way home tonight.

I am very surprised they have lasted this long with how much I abuse the car on the track.


Thanks goodness I was not in boost when it when out.
Spark plugs checked out good despite the A/F went pig rich (10.1) so all evidence at this point is pointing to a coil pack.

I will be pulling the CEL freeze frame data tomorrow.

Now the question is new OEM coil packs or the Okada Projects Coil packs

280MSRP or 735MSRP

What are the benifits of Okada? Do you think they are really worth the extra over meth or some other goodies?
