AMS single turbo kit?

Does anyone know if AMS is going to do something like this?

I know they have alpha 12 gtr maybe we could have alpha 13 n54?

I know they are very reputable and would be able to really fly with the n54. They know cobb inside and out and making a manifold and awesome kit should be cake

Anyone have an inside scoop?

Why ask fellow forum members instead of just contacting AMS directly?

I think this is something that could only be a dream... AMS would own anyone anywhere, I am sure that they just don't see the market. In fact, it would be easy for them... they love using the Cobb AP for tuning and that is readily available, the hardware for them would be easy.

All the questions I had were questions about this car, and comon problems. (except the vin thing, thats because my service advisor kept asking me my vin and told me it was only a few digits, he didnt mention he wanted the last few digits)
This is asking people will this company release a turbo kit, lol its bot like we have the answer to that.(ps: ill make sure to look at your threads once I get on my computer)

The beautiful thing about AMS is that they would probably just buy like 3 motors... keep turning the boost up until stuff blows up and then be like whatever, we'll just build it and see how high we can turn it up again.

THIS 100%

they will fully be able to test the n54 and not care going through a couple motors because they are a huge company.
I give props to shiv but waiting to see what his project car and other cars will hold up in the long run seems like it will take quite a while.

'Bro'

I'm not sure what you have to gain by looking through the threads I started when I'm not the one calling people out to call a company directly. My point was that this wouldn't be much of a forum if people contacted the companies everytime they had a question.

As far as my post about my love handles - it was posted on the proper forum asking for advice. Also since you are so interested in my health, they are doing just fine thank you. I'm 5'11" 185 (10 pounds less than that post) and my bench is up to 240. What about you? a/s/l?
