Ah, it's just semantics. I was aiming to prove a point.

so what's really going on with this... I know it says to PM them with questions, but I don't wanna crowd their in box by asking because I'm just curious.

Are they going to offer a kit?

BTW, checked out peak boost's website, NICE WELDS!

If they took the time to find a mule, it's most likely a full kit. For now, they said they'll keep us updated when more info becomes available.

I hope whatever they're cooking up is done by Summer, I want to see results before I decide on the ultimate route I am going.

And yes, their fabrication work is excellent.

Ugh hurry up and make a kit worthy of spending over 2k on!!! Throw in the d17 kpro with it including maps for street and track. I want to make some power this summer and I have some money to dump into my civic.

REALLY...No **** they are gonna take their time. All I have to say is if they put their stamp of approval on it then I am buying. Honestly how long do you think it takes to get this stuff squared away. They are a large company and I really wouldn't doubt it if by the end of summer they have something put together already. The reason why it takes time to get the kits out are the fabrication it takes to make the pieces for the kits. So I am not worried about it.

Most of you probably already know, but this company is among the best and it will be a real blessing if they come out with a production kit. Perhaps it could lead to a small comeback for the 7thgen civic in the aftermarket community.

Hell yeah... what's up man... how's life been? I remember we used to go at it alot... butt heads and ****.

And to contribute to the thread, I like what you guys are doing here... if the pricing is reasonable... we may look into a turbo kit for the wife's 05... ... just don't tell her.

Hope this will be a better alternative to dezods kit. A topmount mani would be nice but I doubt you would be able to keep a/c maybe ps

Peakboost ftw! I have one of there gt35r k20 kits waiting to be installed in my em2.

The car has been dropped off to the fellas of Peak Boost. It is in their hands now. I am sending them my p/s pump today so they can fit the mani options.
