Not likely from what I've seen ATS doesn't think there's much money to be made in IDIs so I doubt they would be revamping the kit. The shop probly couldn't find it or ATS discontenued it I would try calling ATS direct because their website been messed up for a long time.

It's fact, ATS is revamping their IDI Turbo kit, At least thats what they told me personally!

I read here on FTE by another user that did call them and they were told it's currently unavailable do to the new parts being out of spec from a contract MFG.

-Enjoy
