I think anything to help from overheating would be good. Engines are going to run hotter under boost, so anything you can beef up in regards to cooling would help.

The SF Turbo isn't gonna come with anything if they don't become a registered vendor.

I am a turbo-Toyota specialist. I did a celica, a corolla, a matrix, and i was going to do an IS300 8 months ago. Instead he went with rev-hard, and it still doesnt run.

That's great. Do you do your own design on the IS300?

are you planning to revise the manifold a bit so it can fit both lx and ex cars as a bolt on? i understand the stock ex manifold is shorter..hence the piping is longer, so a shorter manifold will have to be made. Or else i'll have to slice up my cat and be unable to return to stock right?

Is this going to be a short production run? Or are you going to continue selling these kits once the "group buy" is over with (when will you end it?)? Reason is - I don't have the money right now, and would need a little time to scrape it together.....

Thanks...

you get a downpipe with the kit, and you would remove your intake and replace it with the intercooler piping that is included.
