I personally built a Rotrex C30 based system for a client who owns an 05 Altima SER. I worked with great folks talking to Active Autowerkes whom make BMW kits; KraftWerks, whom make Miata and Honda kits; and URD which makes Toyota Tacoma V6 kits. I picked their brains, and ordered fairly thick aluminum from 8020 Inc and built a bracket to support a Rotrex C30. I was also able to "borrow" Genesis Performance's HKS Rotrex G35 for a few days to compare how the kit was designed.
Real totals:
Rotrex @ shop disc rate: C30 = $1945 including shipping from URD.
8020 Inc Aluminum = $390 including shipping
Fastenal Hardware = $180 (each bolt was min order of 10)
Xo2 / CX Racing 2.75 piping kit w/ IC : $249.99 shipped @ shop disc rate

Fueling issues: converted to return system, drop in Walbro, Nismo FPR set @ 3.5 bar base pressure, stock injectors.
Cost: 10ft 3/8" Aeroquip Blue line, Fastenal SS fittings 3/8" to 1/4npt, clamps, nismo fpr = $310

I will not post pictures, nor give details, the above took me over a year to figure out, and I do not want any "copies" made until I have some approval of rights to the kit. I don't mind listing the parts, which are publicly available. I did leave out details of items, very important items. I'm not trying to be "that guy" but its strictly business, and I hope this inspires some of you to look at other alternatives that are available to you.
Get us a kit once you get the rights to everything and I will buy it.

I doubt I'll produce the kits. I built everything by hand, every tig weld, drilling, tapping. I just set out there the vendors where parts can be purchased from, so maybe others can get an idea on how to build one. As for obtaining intellectual rights on how to construct it, its a PITA to display how it is an improvement over other designs and don't want to infringe on other rights that have been set forth by others before me.
The customer paid top dollar for all the work performed, don't know if it will be profitable in the end, since engine management is crucial to make it run right. Adding additional injector controls for boost conditions and using FMU to boost fuel pressure are so "old school."
UpRev is a great option for you 3.5 guys, that would really pull some insane power. Working w. Osiris on a handful of VQ powered cars, unlocking so much potential and making it more fuel efficient, can't ask for more.

*I haven't seen enough time slips to know what a good reaction speed is, but I thought it was closer to a 1/4 of a second/.250.
I was told before that if you get a .499 or lower it's almost like jumping the line. My thought has always been that by the time you launch and your wheels get off the mark it takes about a half second so the lowest you wanna get is .500. If you get a .250 then you jumped the line by .250 second early... .423 would be .077 second early ect.

if you look at the time slip in this link, Left: .526 R/T Right: .562 R/T
