Does anyone have news on this jwt turbo kit? I called them a few weeks ago, and they said it was in the works and it could be ready as soon as immediate as in next month or as long as next year?!?!? What kinda estimate is that?!? Oh well, I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one that a CARB legal turbo kit sounds good to? I know i heard the dyno on the prototype was really weak (was it around 170whp i think), but wouldn't you think it was just detuned for the CARB legal reasons, thus turn up the boost, and it should be running just like any other T28 turbo out there? And when a cop asks you to pop your hood.. you go sure thing officer, I ain't got nothin to hide! Anyways I was just curious, I am in the market for a turbo (i prefer to get a whole kit) this summer and being in CA, maybe this would be good? They already have the CARB certification, you can look it up on http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aftermkt/devices/devices.htm
I guess the bottom line is, Is this coming out anytime soon? (It's been in development forever, how hard can it be to design a turbo kit?!?!?!? I mean the toughest part should be the ECU which they have already)
Here's a cut n paste:

The oxygen sensor is relocated at the turbo outlet and the original EGR tube is replaced by a longer EGR tube that captures exhaust from the connecting pipe. The manufacturer recommends 92 octane fuel.
