If you have a look at the Sema show car, you'll see that they've moved the filter from above the exhaust manifold (as on the car on Youtube) to infront on the engine inside a metal airbox.

MB just stick with your Cams and ITB!

It looks like the Rotrex charger to me and they do the adaptor plate the other way around to TTS kit.

Nice kit just abit late to bring that out as we already have well tested SC kit out there.

It is a Rotrex, Dixon.

Just like theirs & the Mugen* kits for the CR-Z.

HKS seems to have something of a 'rice tat' reputation that isn't justified.








*it's not really a 'kit' as such.

I agree it's a Rotrex, but the setup of it looks very nice.

I'm not straying from the NA path yet, Dixon Just get that Romain chap back from his holidays to do these cams!

Just seen this in the latest Banzai magazine, its suppost to be good for around 350 bhp, and the intake, intercooler, crank pulley, fuel pump, injectors and exhaust manifold are all prototypes

Yep and that's the latest pic of it. The ones Chris posted are from last year I believe so they much have advanced it a bit.

HKS call it V CAM, they used to do it for the RB26 and 2JZ.

Think of it like VTC on the i-VTEC K20 or VANOS on BMW engine.
