I doubt an F20 would last very long under that kind of pressure.
The Elda kit wasn't going to give you that kind of HP, but it's supposed to run around 5 lbs of boost. A much more practical number.
Unfortunately, the folks at Elda seem to have lost interest. They backed out on their commitment to build the V2 rollbars, and I'm afraid this kit will suffer the same fate.
It would be nice if Wael would at least have the courtesy to update this thread, (considering how many of us have been chomping at the bit). Sadly, the Elda peeps just don't seem to care.
It's really a shame... I've been waiting a long time for this turbo, but I've given up hope.

I ran 18 psi for 3.000 miles on my stock motor northing ever went wrong!!!
What was I thinking before?!
With such thorough, complete, and rigorous testing, clearly this is a completely safe level of boost. Obviously, I was totally wrong!
btw... (and in all seriousness) my thanks to Wael for his earlier post updating us. Apparently, we weren't being ignored, and my apologies for any mis-directed accusations.

We're very close to begining tooling on the manifolds. Believe me, we're just as anxious to get the Scorpion out as you are to get it.
