Is this car tuned? Or the supercharger just pushing enough to not require a tune?

Guys not sure if you have been following the isf action. RR-Racing has been in development with this since 2015 / early 2016. More so the tuning aspect that will allow this action to happen. See pics below...





I just spoke with Rafi. RR-Racing is just finalizing the tuning development and then immediately supercharging in late July early August on the RCF platform. Setup will be same as ISF, so all durability and track testing on the ISF will be completed in July. RR-Racing did a roadshow in CA and PA where they showcased their house ISF. All products should follow, such as the " tuned " intake ( wider maf housing to allow more air ), etc. ISFs are around 420-425 whp with intake header exhaust tune ( with tuned intake ). For the RCF,
I personelly speculate somewhere in the 460-470 range if the same correlation happens on the RCF. The tune is on the horizon. With that the SC will follow. With a company like RR who track tests and then tests more in real life applications, our wishes wants and prayers will be answered soon.

I can't wait to see what comes of this. SC on the race / luxury platform of the RCF will make it a clear contender for a go-to lux racer! ( Bmw who )

The aftermarket will have finally arrived!!!

Since the engine is the same what are the chances of a GS-F supercharger kit following the RC-F one?
