Don't quote me on this but i swear i remember seeing the idc% on the LNF's are extremely low from the factory.

I still can't figure out why they used a twin scroll turbo on the LNF? I've seen the LNF cut away in person, and the turbo is the size of nickel!!! 
Of course I'm exaggerating, but seriously its freakin tiny!!! Even if it wasn't a twin scroll it would still spool at like 2000! Seems like it would be much better to use a twin scroll 20G or something, that would be awesome!

I am gonna have to try and find it because I don't remember the name of it. However, when I see it I will post it on here. As for the rumors, that was what was told to me by someone. Nowhere in writing so I don't know how true it is.

It would have to be...as a purveyor of Mitsu turbos for over 15 years, allow me to emphasize that a 13g cannot produce 400 WHP of airflow 
It's true as of now. This may change in the future.
Even 349 WHP would be a stretch on a 13G. Not to just argue with y'all, but I feel compelled to remind everyone that this is still the Wild Wild Internet, where anything goes with info...fact-checking remains imperative
Our fuel upgrades are still in development, and I remain a tad tight-lipped for now...but we do currently offer the BSR PPC Tuner for the Sol and Sky folks, and will be transferring this technology to the SS and HHR ASAP.
No engine attrition yet, but our customers have indeed been achieving in the high 200's in WHP. Much more to come soon!
400whp run was with N20. 349 was all turbo.
Next question. What kind of fuel upgrades are you planning bill? Will you be offering a higher flowing pump and/or injectors?
What kind of boost numbers have the Sky/Solstice guys been running? Anyone popping there engines?

Hey Bill.
You might want to consider changing your screen name on here.
The term "EcoBoost" has just been trademarked by Ford for use in their upcoming turboed engine line.
Thought you might like to know LOL
With all the other BS Ford has been sueing people over recently... you never can be sure.

the lnf runs 2100 lbs of fuel pressure.
show me an aftermarket injector that will hold that. then you will find an upgraded injector.
everything thus far is speculation in terms of real hp numbers, what it is capable of. hell half of the people in here have no idea what the lsj is capable of, and yet the "wild wild" internet is going off the deep end again with lnf numbers.
