Chris@VargasTurboTech · 09-15-2017, 02:26 AM

As always, we've been in the thick of continued development. Here is a quick update/state of the union/teaser:

LEAD TIMES:
We heard you -and we've been working hard to reduce lead times where possible. Here is where we're at currently:
•N54 OEM through Stage 2+: In stock, same/next day shipping or 1-3 days from order to shipping depending on which model you chose
•N55 Stage 1: In stock or 1-3 days from order to shipping
•All silicone in stock
•All Crank Bolt Captures expected to be in stock within the next 2 weeks
•S55 Stage 2: Limited (based on core availability)
•S55 Silicone charge pipes in stock

NEW SHOTGUN:
•One piece housing eliminates cracking issues
•All parts come anodized black
•Shaft is SS 17-4, aged and hardened for a 38+ Rockwell grade (factory is 32-33 RW)
•All new feed line using -6 hoses
•Everything better, but pricing stays the same

NEW S55 GC's:
•Q1 2018

AL CHARGE PIPES:
•New aluminum N54 hotside charge pipes coming soon for 135/335/535/Z4 -expected Q4 2017

Teaser of things to come:
Proprietary designs. Race proven technology. Leaps ahead of anything anyone else is even dreaming of. Price that won't hurt you. Late Q4 2017/Q1 2018. We did it before, we're doing it again, even better. More info to come soon.

What size are the aluminum outlets expected to be ? Damn just when I installed my silicone one lol

Chris@VargasTurboTech · 09-15-2017, 09:25 AM

Awesome

Looking forward to future shotgun reviews.

Very exciting times indeed.

Antoans4 · 09-15-2017, 06:04 PM

Would be possible to run full e85 with the new shotgun and stg2 fuel it?

terryd5150 · 09-16-2017, 12:10 AM

Tough to tell from those last teaser pics, but that's either GC+ or a cast bottom mount single.

I hope like hell it's the single....

autoart · 09-16-2017, 12:36 AM

Just when you think your about done with the car, something new comes out. I never liked the idea of silicone outlets. Finally aluminum , makes more sense. I hope it looks close to stock, and give us some hp/tq.

JuniorB · 09-16-2017, 08:37 PM

It looks like a cast gc, and a single 535 kit would be awesome . Someone needs to build it !

Julian2485 · 09-17-2017, 01:53 PM

What's the size of the aluminum outlet suppose to be ?

Antoans4 · 10-12-2017, 03:15 PM

I would think so, since we have the better fueling system to really make it shine.

Chris

They say they are waiting on parts

Chris@VargasTurboTech · 10-18-2017, 09:26 PM

Eh, I don't have any insight as to why that is. I'm sure they have their reasons.
