perhaps i misexpressed what i was saying

i definatly don't want hp TO DROP AFTER AN EARLY PEAK
U r clueless to what racing engine dyno's r supposed to look like

 

5500rpm is early? oh please teach us more mr schumacher.

people like you are why there is the phrase "Horsepower sells cars, torque wins races".

you can keep your "peak horpsepower at redline". i want mine after the shift. we'll see who gets there first...

 

The insert, how far from the charger unit is it positioned? (And is it pre- or post compression?) Why is it preferable to a 5 psi pop-off valve?

 

Can this kit be utilized for the 09 fit?

 

The 09 has a different engine and body, and a smaller engine bay. Theres no way it would work.

Im first in line for a kit for the 09 if they ever make one

 

the perfect reply from a nascar nitwit

 

today appears to be the release date!

Do we start flooding the phone lines or do we wait for KW to call us?

 

Very good question Wave! I have almost called about 20 times today. I remember OJR saying that they would call us though, so I wait for that.

 

Really, they said the where going to give use a call? I figured they would just send us a E-mail to let use know that it has been shipped.

 

Last time they asked about an extra quart of Rotrex oil at least.

 

Just got off the phone with Oscar Jr., looks like mine is shipping out Monday morning boys & girls!Pleasure talking with you sir. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

 

Dittos here! Stoked.
I have just in the past 2 months got really into autoX and am looking forward to the kit giving me a little much needed edge. Oscar confirmed the optimal rpm range of this kit should make it a real noticeable benefit for autoX. Damn it's been a long wait though. Seems like the whole world is a different place since back when I pre-ordered.

 

all orders are available either to ship out or pick up on monday. i sadly learned this the hard way and showed up earlier today hoping to grab mine.

 

Yeah, the injector upgrade isn't available just yet either. I'm gonna need that too before I proceed with the install. I'm hoping to get it all done the weekend of December 6th.

 

good luck with the install. hope everthing goes smoothly.

get an a/f gauge. it will be worth it.

 

I missed the call on Friday and called a few times on Sat but no luck. I guess I will have to try again after work on Monday.

 

give us a full review once you are up and running wave. i'm very anxious to hear your impressions!

 

As long as torque = horsepower at 5252RPM, it looks like a dyno.

Having power and torque peak before redline is how just about every production car was DESIGNED. Torque peaks at peak volumetric efficiency (VE), and redline happens AFTER peak VE. This is desired so that you don't fall completely out of the powerband when you shift.

Having peak torque happen 1000 RPM before the redline is actually pretty late in the grand scheme of things. Go google a dyno graph of a V8.

So STFU. You're not adding anything to this thread, and I'm tired of reading your stupid posts.

 

picked up my a/t kit earlier today. got a quick personal tour by oscar sr., everyone was friendly and sincere. dr. charles was always lurking around, and oscar jr. delivered the goods as promised. nothing but praise for kraftwerks!

installing the kit probably in the upcoming weeks, will have before and after dynos posted as well...

 

^ grats on getting the kit. cant wait to see what numbers it puts out for the AT
