I Just went into ARK for R&D for the AWD version. It turns out it is a little different from the RWD version. The pipe on the Driver side needs to be altered, to make it fit. They made a altered pipe for my car and everything turned out good.

No official release date yet, they told me they will have to send in the specs and have it manufactured for the AWD version. They said they would let me know how long it would take

it was pretty cool having my car on the dynojet at FSR Motorsports. That place is a haven for Supras and M3s....no joke. They had 5 of each and they tune ALL day long...very impressive. So here are the numbers...consistent gains overall.

Impressive gains. I wouldn't expect this without tuning. Your car is stock otherwise?
