Oops, I really need to say sorry for using your photos as they were so nicely taken!!
We read that from Japanese EVO magazines. Talked to HKS lately and they are now working on two packages: one with 7 clutches to replace the original 6 which can increase the torque limit by approx 10%, also comes along with a oil cooler, mainly for a bit aggressive tuning; another one mainly on retuning SST and tailor-refined oil, for more smooth and enduring shifting performance.

No worries, Im glad to see such a nice buildup in SH and am even more surprised that you can even get order those JDM parts locally.
Definitely good news for us MR drivers! I have been holding my breathe on these. Any ETA from HKS?

My EVO is now getting prepared in my tuner's garage and waiting for the HKS technicans coming from Japan this weekend to start working on the camshaft and IS package. Would follow-up with them about the SST enhancement development by then.

Mode A 1.2bar already well-tuned with SST also re-programmed. Mode B 1.5bar is not yet satisfactorily tuned due to the poor quality of gasoline here in China and the HKS technican needs to bring the IS back to Japan to upgrade the programme and fly back this weekend to fine tune again.
Hope I can have more report next week then.
