I'll do my best to translate it into English and take pictures of it. But if there's something specific, pretty sure any of us can help you out with any problems you might be having.

As Umino is Volkers Tuner, I just assume, an Umino setup is the real deal
Having said that, I have not seen an IIC setup yet

Thats my exact point why does his setup need to be SO secret? I know Umino posted a base setup if you will but its close to stock. It makes me question Meen's setup and others too.

Are there any particular questions you have about the kit ?
Nothing in particular to ask, thanks.
It only seemed strange to me that the manual has only the first pages translated in English.

hi mikey,

i tried both

this is what i found out

2 degree c hub - entry more steering but mid and exit corner will be lesser
6 degree c hub - entry lesser steering but mid and exit corner more steering.

i run 2deg chub in carpet to prevent traction roll during exit corner
i run 6deg chub in high flow track when i need more mid n exit corner steering..

i also tried out the lates 1.6mm upperdeck yday. it's give me much more mid corner speed and also more grip throughout the corner.

but i was matching it with 2.0mm lowerdeck from Roche..

Hey guys,
Anyone see pics of the Yokomos at the last ETS race? Were they using shorter/lower shocks?

They indeed are the lower shocks if you looks very close. You can notice the lower towers and different coloured shock bodies
