Quite a tease...

1) How much power?
2) How much money?
3) CARB compliance? (I don't care but others will)
4) When will it be ready for th '06 cars?

1.255-270whp
2.??
3.not likely..
4.It will work on 06 cars now...probably won't be selling it as a kit...as of this time it is a custom set-up done in house.

E.D. · 06-10-2008, 08:56 PM

EFI driven or custom flash?

GTsRasta · 06-10-2008, 09:01 PM

So that's what you guys have been up to!!! Nice stuff!!

Looks like it won't work for the Celica at all though

.

Good luck with the sales!

Hmmm....so more than $10k and a trip to California?

Casey@ForcedFed · 06-10-2008, 10:00 PM

I haven't finalized the entire parts list...so I'm not sure on the price....and there is like 6 hours labor alone in those mitre cut intercoooler pipes and that is not really cost effective...but they look cool.

Let me guess, Mark's car?

So you talk smack about FF in one thread and pay them a compliment in another? ....and why would it work on a Celica, they make it for Lotus and are posting about it on a Lotus site...what part of that did you miss?

Did I mention the Weapon R header is the cheapest at $273.90 shipped on a website I found (and can't seem to post without getting in trouble)??? Is the forcedfed's still really worth the wait after no updates and the extra price tag?

Nice! I can't wait to see dynos

[quote=Chris Mackey;1026872]Quite a tease...

2) How much money?

a) Well around $800 for the manifolds
b) mp62 supercharger "mine came with the greddy but I would imagine around $2000 for the charger"
c) EFI $3000
d) Install,tune and parts... $? we will see

Entire price I would imagine will be under 10k

ps: I have a water injection that will get turned on after the final tune. but thats another story

uglyduck · 06-11-2008, 08:52 PM

So that is what you have been waiting so long for...look like it will be worth the wait.

Long wait but magnuson "misplaced" my supercharger. They did give me a free nose/drive. That was cool.

sfelise · 06-11-2008, 10:34 PM

Can you just order all the manifolds from a dealer? Are they all available?
