Got any more details on Power/Torque/Price for the packages? Also, any Torque curve graphs? One more thing: If the TBs are installed, is it OK to leave the car outside in the pouring rain without a showercap to protect them?

These are all good questions. However we have a meeting next week with test running on Ians car so I'll know more then. Needless to say there's little point developing these if they don't outperform any modded NA to date, SC cars included. :D Things like noise, use in the the wet etc are all part of that process.
