I know I'm a little late since you're in R&D already, but I'm also very interested in this kit. After I make my black NSX look like Vance's lol, I definitely want to go FI. My simple wishlist:
1. 380-420whp, flat torque and smooth power delivery
2. Spool at 3500-4000rpm
3. Gravity drain oil system
4. Safe on engine with stock pistons and internals
5. Stealth install (i.e., quiet blow-off, fits under stock engine cover)
6. Emissions "quasi-compliant" lol (I could care less about the formal certifications, as long as it passes the NYS inspection test) I live in the NYC area, so this is a big issue unfortunately.
7. Heat-sensitive layout, protecting surrounding components
8. Materials and construction that can withstand a full-day track event
9. That incomparable Lovefab exhaust note!
9. ~$10k out the door.
My two primary areas of concern are the emissions and oiling issues. Before I saw this thread, I was leaning toward a SC solution, since it gave me ~400whp, no plumbing and a good chance of passing the emissions test since it doesn't disturb the exhaust system. Although, I suppose if I use hi-flow cats, all the turbo does is reroute the existing exhaust, so it should be just as "clean" as an SC, am I right?
Also, even though a gravity drain is more elegant, would the high lateral G forces on a track impede oil flow back to the pan?
