I imagine a lot of the old timers on here might not have facebook so re-sharing the news: https://www.facebook.com/factoryfive...type=3&theater
If you can't read it, here's the message:
"...We have held off developing the ecoboost kit for the 818C until there is enough interest. We can sorta talk you thru the mods we made if you want to do it custom as we did, but official tooling and a formal install kit are not available.

Can't say I'm too surprised. Guess it's time to start pushing for a 818E for the eventual gen2? (That's E for electric by the way.) Just need a a cheap readily available motor/controller and battery pack.
