    Trust me, if it were that simple I would. I could probably tell you every car with the mileage, price and location that is available online right now. I search every day, looking, plotting and planning, just waiting for the right one to come available to buy.

    Yea he has posted before, my guess is he's a pretty busy guy and has little time to follow the forums. Email him or hit him up on Facebook.

    I believe a lot of factors will determine how many might actually sell..... my opinion...... I believe the following questions would be relevant to not only me but others as well....

    1) Cost - the obvious one
    2) Which Unit - with many sizes and new styles available would it be a newer updated screw box or just a rehashed old style unit?
    3) Options available?
    4) Intercooler used?
    5) For Gen1 users- ECU program available?
    6) Type of injectors needed?
    7) For those of us who have DEQ testing would it pass a sniff test?

    These are a few questions I would have,,,, since I have a gen1 my concerns are a little different than others.... I love the look and am sure I would enjoy the power upgrade but its gonna cost a chunk and I would hope it would be new, better stuff than what was available back then.... my 2cents

    Some of your questions have been answered on FB by Sean.

    1) "Trying to keep them in the prior $7,500 range if the volume is there."
    2) Bigger than the prior units... my guess would be the 2.8L or H.
    3) I could be wrong, but there will be minor options like a polished compressor or basic black.
    4) Doubtful on the intercooler
    5) VEC-Gen 1, SCT for Gen 2.
    6) Normally the kits came with the required injectors.
    7) Yea good luck with that..

    I got a reply back from Sean. In short, he expects to be able to release some details soon.

    I think a lot of UK Guys do, that's why its so quiet on the UK region forum. Think I'm the only one left that does not use it!

    Facebook groups have slowed forum traffic in all hobbies.

    This. The reality of this is that Sean will only be able to produce these IF people actually pay up for them. It's one thing to say "I'm interested" but another to follow through and put down cash so Sean can produce them. I believe he needs 50?commitments in order to make the dollars work for this. Lots of people were interested in 2007/2008 too. I doubt this will happen and not because of a lack of effort by Sean.

    I wonder if he'll be including a complimentary cam sensor with each purchase.

    Last time I poke with Sean it was 10 units before he`d get them made.

    To another question; Car should pass emmissions testing except for the paperwork. Not certified in Calif and because of the expense I would not expect compliance. If the car is tuned properly emmissions shouldn`t be a problem unless there`s something wrong with the car.

    Well it appears the new economics is 50 units. I would supposed that's to keep the old pricing.
