Can we have a brief yet still thourogh description of the manifold? Is it huge plenum, short runners with internal velocity stacks and other cool stuff?
Whats the definition of "far too early to tell" does that mean this stuff is coming in the fall?

We have an automatic transmission controller, that could turn your auto into a paddle shift or push button shifter. As far as building it up, no help there.

Prototype will be ready in 2-4 weeks. Hopefully a sale item will be ready in 6-8weeks.

Dezod, just a suggestion while you're still R&Ding..... threaded bungs for vacuum ports in the IM would be a HUGE help. Kinda like a built in vacuum distribution block.

Crower cams will only work on the EX. They are made with VTEC in mind.

All of our parts will be EX/DX/LX universal.

will there be extensive R&D and test and tune with these parts or will you just design them based on previous models for other d-series?

Subscribing to thread.

Can't wait to see these products. I've been planning to get boosted by the end of the summer, and I want to build up my engine as much as my wallet will allow. Now we just need someone to work on our transmissions and axles.

The IM will be geared toward forced induction. It will be developed under characterisitics of a turbo D17 in mind with minimal regard to previous D17 IMs.
