There are easier ways to go FI than importing a kit from South Africa.

Looks interesting, but low on details.

I noticed the stock dyno only equates to about 230 WHP. Their "after" dyno was about 350 WHP.
I just used google to convert KW to HP, but the numbers seem pretty low for both readings.

lol my bad that came out bad.. It is interesting where they were able to place the SC unit but then it looks like they may have placed the IC behind the radiator which seems suboptimal. I'd like to see what TopZ could come up with using that bracket. Nice that it allows the stock intake manifold.

Honestly can't really tell... but in the pic on the dyno with the hood open you can see the compressor outlet goes into something there behind the radiator. I am only speculating its an Air-Air IC.

Is this a Stillen kit re-engineered with Air to Air, location of the SC seems almost a copy of the Stillen kit and they just re-worked the piping to keep the OEM manifold.

I'm curious how they made room for the drivers side intake pipe.
