Yes, but usually when things come here from the States the price doubles 
If this is not that case, all to Germany to install it

I would like some hard numbers on wtf this is actually going to perform?
I would like to know how this is going to stress my trans and any other parts on my ride?
I have the cash. but don't want to get into something that is going to blow up my ride.

Hey, if they honour that price in Germany, stick me on the list and I'll be over on the next ferry... then when they've finished letting the horse power fairies sprinkle their dust over the engine bay, we can all congratulate ourselves with some laps of the Nuburgring

seriously, someone from VF engineering should arrange a similar opening deal here in Europe - before ESS tuning release their equivalent SC for the V8 in November.

The V8 SC market will probably be saturated rather quick, due to the low numbers of V8 in europe.
Not to mention the numbers of V8 cars with a motorhead as owner
Anyhow, I would like to add forged pistons and conrods to lower the compression ratio. And realiability in the long run.
10.5:1 and overcharge it from 330hp to near 500Hp will leave the engine rather sensitive to knock.
Shell V-power 99oct will be mandatory

Will ESS release its kit?
Someone said they won't.

So don't worry too much for your transmission
Different story if you'll go on track every sunday for 3-4 hours...
