That's the best looking turbo kit I've ever seen for the s2000 ...About how much power is this going to put down?

I thought that this was going to be the first air-to-air install of the kit?? That big box sure looks like air-to-water unless I am missing something

Turbo Spec = No, it is custom for this kit. We will not release the inter details.
Oil Relo = No. It is not needed
Fual Managment = E-Manage

I understand the desire to keep things secret but surely anyone who is looking to buy will want to know the specs. Whether it is ball bearing, water cooled, will spool quickly and it's top end limits were all part of my purchase decision.

I understand, but part of the info will be kept under wraps.

1. We will offer a ball bearing turbo as an option. Mine is a sleave bearing model
2. It is water cooled.

the rest is not info I have to give as I am learning the ins and outs of turbos myself.

So if you have a detailed question, ask. If I can anwser it, I will. If you ask a generalized question (What is the specs of the turbo for example) We are not going to detail the turbo. It was built custom for this application, based on the initial design protype.

I think Elda are making a mistake with the Air-Water. But not a technical mistake; a marketing mistake.

Many of the potential buyers will have a strong (although not necessary correct) opinion about these technologies, and quite a few even seem to just want the FMIC look more than the performance.

It's one thing to have the better product, just so long as it's not the Beta product.

Will the short length of upper radiator hose be required with a stock radiator?

Wael mentioned a while ago a larger radiator was going to be offered with the kit. Is that still in the works?
