That's great. I am looking forward to seeing your results. The one and only question is that are you able to match a software in the ECU for this kit for the M159 engine?
Please if you can show us pre and post dyno runs.
Thanks and good luck

Well we never dyno'ed the car before we started but I am sure that there are enough people that have so you will have an idea. We will be tuning on the dyno so we should have some results for you in the near future.

This is very interesting to follow, looking forward to the results. Will the turbos kill the aural pleasure from the M159, because that is a huge part of the characterics of the SLS. Some sound clips would be appreciated when you are done. Thanks!

What would you like to know? We had the car at the SEMA show and it was in the Continental Tires booth. We are trying to work out a deal with a mainstream magazine to use the car as a feature. Over the years we have been featured in hundreds of magazines but we feel that this build is worthy of a mainstream magazine (i.e. Road & Track, Car And Driver, Motor Trend, etc.). I know a lot of you want to know details about the build but we are wanting to get the most marketability out of our investment.
I hope to see many of you that are in Southern California come by our shop anytime you want though, our doors are always open to you and one of us will be happy to show you around.
Thanks-

Anybody heard anything more about this? I am guessing since there has been no updates in a while that there really is no such kit, at least not a working version. I wish it were true, I have been wanting to do this to my SLS for a while now.

I guess it's best to contact them directly to get the real scope of the work
