Hardware is the easy part, software is the difficult part of these projects. Typically a tuner will figure out the software before they build the hardware unless they are looking to farm software out to a 3rd party.

Kit is also on their personal m3, and they have been thrashing it about. No problems so far is what I hear. Will be making a trip to Australia in march to take a personal tour of the facility.

In addition to Audi they produce superchargers for lotus, as well as some US military applications.

I've heard some unofficial news about this. We will see what happens in the next coming weeks. Can't wait to see the power being made.
