The latest news on jimwolftechnology.com is that they are still working on CARB certification; that is dated sometime in October. Wondering if anyone has heard anything new

When I last spoke to them a couple of weeks ago they told me they were expecting to get their carb cert by the end of first quarter. So they're shooting for the end of March.

 

Has pricing been discussed on this kit? Ive seen a few numbers tossed around, but didnt know if they were set on one...

Think i can get one for $500.00 ?????

 

When I asked JWT the answer they gave me was "The price will be in the high 6k range" It does not come with injectors either. They said for the hp they are shooting for (400bhp), injectors aren't needed. Later down the road they will have upgrades to the kit, but they said you will have to do a rebuild first to do it safely. They claim 400bhp which is about 330 to the wheels is the safest they think out car can run for a long time without doing the internals. I know many people have pushed it way past that but nobody has done it for a long time yet so we don't know who's right. JWT is well known for working on Nissan's so he may be right. Most of the guys on my350z.com are doing engine rebuilds now because they either already blew their motor which I think I a lot did, or they are doing it before the blow it.

As I stated in that thread, SCC mag indicates a rising rate FPR will be used along with a higher flow fuel pump. So no need for larger injectors give the boost level should be relatively low as well.

 

Digging this up from the grave; any news on JWT getting CARB certified?

Dave

 

DaveO from SportZ mag said over on the my350z board that he talked to Jim Wolf the other day and they didn't pass CARB on their latest test.

 

Well, that sucks. The main reason I am waiting for JWT is the CARB. That and the smooth response. Oh, and the lack of an ugly hood modification...

cost was ~$6900 according to DaveO @ my350z too... i don't know how complete that kit is though either.

 

Cost doesn't bother me, really, I expect to pay $10k to $15k for the kit, full install, tuning, and gauges. I just really want the CARB certification.

i don't think they are carb cert yet!!!

 

Uh, duh?

Thats what has already been said. Thanks for playing.
