Turbo setups for the future?

Just wondering...How much of an advancement into the FI [world] do you all think we see come out of our cars? I for one am planning on going FI at around 40k miles assuming the finances are secure on this end. Does anyone know of any companies that may be planning to release turbo kits or turbo setups for our cars other than GTM? Do you think the prices on such kits or setups/installations will drop and the reliability of our cars being FI increase?

Yeah man i hear yah on the prices end and yeah im hoping we see some improvements in general with the modding and tuning of our car. It could be a complete monster with stability, reliability, and still remain a beautifully classy looking car in the FI world. Hope as time goes on the 3.7 from nissan holds up to the boost

dont the 370z have the same engine as us? then that will prompt more companies to come out with a FI of their own. i would be interested in a supercharger, cost like what 5k and not that much maintance.

That is my train of thought along with other products. If the architecture is similar to the new Z then you can expect more incentive for companies to put R&D in if they can sell it to two different models.

If you look at the options that the g35 c's have, it seems like companies will jump on board eventually. I think the major set back right now is that we don't have a decent fuel management system to support a low boost turbo upgrade. Most people looking for 350 - 450 hp aren't going to spend $5500 on V-pro and fuel system upgrade when a reflash would likely do.
