There's a tuner roundup mag on the news stands with a brief article on this package. The 17+(!) psi boost, 255 hp, 325 ft/lb torque makes me think there's a typo somewhere. Maybe 325 hp and 255 ft/lb torque instead? Hard to believe the stock renesis can take that much boost. Regardless, it's listed as a test mule not intended for commercial sale so it sounds like they still have driveability issues to tune out before it hits primetime.

That article also said the car had an upgraded clutch they might be stupid or coming off a 3 week crack binge

Well--I they do have a kit for A/T and Manual--so my guess is that was in reference to the manual. Remember in every other market besides North America the 4-Port comes with a 5 spd manual. The 5 spd 4-ports are only a couple of ticks behind the 6-ports (0-60 in about 6.8-7.2s if I recall).

Thats what I'm saying--the article had the auto--but they also have a kit for the M/T.

That kit doesn't make that kind of power. This is the kit Greddy was making for Re-Amemiya, but decided not to release in the US. It theoretically makes 70 hp. And is still too expensive.
