We are sold out of FD EWP kits at the moment. 21 more units are in the works and should be done within the month. We are moving ahead on the S4 FC street kits too.
We have some solid state relays enroute to us to test the use of the Adaptronic as the controller( PWM controlled). Shawn here wrote up an entire how to document, and has been confirmed by tech. We are just waiting to test it out to make sure it theory matches reality.

We have added some install instructions in the attached photos.
Also we have been working on the install instructions for using the Kit less controller via ECU control;
Adaptronic 420/440/PnP Rx-7 Davies Craig EWP Control Startup Guide
We will be testing the above next week while we wait for the relay to come in.
Chris I emailed you.

Pumps & LCD controllers are in stock. Blue plates will be back in stock by the end of next week. Just waiting on black to be anodized. About 20 kits will be in stock. Videos coming soon too.
All pending orders have shipped too.

one thing that will be interesting to see is how easily this will fit with my Greddy vmount kit, forgot about that when i ordered it, might have to do a few minor mods and custom silicone hose for it.

Here are a couple of pics of how i have it installed ATM with my V mount rad in, Electric water pump install - Album on Imgur
will post more eventually showing fitment with the I/C, turbo(when it gets here) and intake/filter, looks like there wont be any clearance issues at all though
Edit: does it matter which side i hook the pump up to? just thinking about this since i posted, it will be easy enough to change if not, but better now than after something goes catastrophically wrong

Nathan,
The pump inlet and outlet need to be flip flopped to be on that side of the radiator. I believe its ok to be on the outlet hose. Davies craig recommends the inlet hose(other one) but this may be just because its at a lower point in the coolant system. I will confirm for you. I would change to the side just for more space for your turbo system. It will be finished middle of this week fyi.

so just to confirm before i go spending lots of money, in this drawing EWP wiring
It shows a 100 amp relay, yet only a 15 amp fuse, am i safe in assuming i can get a much much much smaller relay than that (like 30 amp one)
like this
and finally for reference the digikey PN referenced there is for the bulk pack of 500 Diodes, to buy them as individuals this is the PN: 10A02-TDICT-ND

Race is up next!
Here is a photo of the FC version being installed here..
We also had someone successfully install the EWP plate + pump with no LCD controller. Their Adaptronic ecu is controlling it with the diagram on our site, and Adaptronic forum..

We just did a FD3S EWP install here on a single turbo FD. This system is definitely a big improvement over stock. The Davies Craig EWP150 is MORE than enough pump for these cars, and paired with the ability to control pump flow vs temperature allows one to easily keep the car cool. I personally like the post shut down, engine off cooling of the turbo system( with a water cooled turbo).
