No doubt it's not like they are reinventing the wheel.
20 years experiance making turbo's and they can't seem to make one for us with in 18 months.
They don't seem to have a problem making turbos for foreign cars though, this is america
they are a american based company you would think american made cars would come first.
Not only that but then they act like it is a BIG change from manual to auto .

i emailed them about the turbo kits, and asked if they had any idea when it would be done. They said no. I then asked for an approximate, 1 month, 6 months, a year??? and they said unfortunately at this time they have no ETA... which probably means they stopped working on it..

They just went to market with the twin charge kit for the LSJ. So they are still making stuff.
I don't know what happened to DarkLordXenocide.
I do know the reason why the kit won't work on the auto.
As mentioned above, the pipe routing is different, but also, check this out:
The engines are actually mounted in slightly different positions between the auto and the manual. I didn't know that before a couple months ago. However, it is also a different charge pipe routing, so same fix for both problems.
I believe Hahn is still actively looking for a local auto LE5 to fit the kit too.

I am rapidly losing interest also.

well i wouldnt worry about it. at the very least, pressure from other manufacturers talking about making or testing turbo chargers will cause hahn to put the turbo at a higher priority. all companies know that someone else beating them to the punch isnt good business

Wow you guys, wow...
If youve noticed before you decide to bash Hahn, atleast notice that Hahn is pretty much the only company thats actualy tried...I dont see others trying...
But on that note, I will have a suprise for you all in about a month or so...
