Enth, I would get this over those other mods, it's more horsepower and looks really cool. Assuming it has passed all technical tests and doesn't throw any CELs.

I would get on this, but Richard seems to be taking an inordinately long time in delivering to market.

Wasn't the original ETA something like August last year?

I'd love to get it, but this is pretty discouraging.

Richard will be posting up a little later on. I spoke with him today. There was some shaking up at DynaTek, and some doubt as to whether the company would continue to produce things like headers and intakes.

Richard says they are currently committed to producing the parts. If people want to pull out of the Group Buy, that is totally understandable, since there is no specific release date at this time.

When and if they are produced, I intend to carry them in my store. That's about all I can say -- I'm sure Richard could fill in more details for us.

He did not say on the phone when production pieces would be released. I believe the design is finalized.

I think a slight price drop would be proper to keep everyone in on this.

How does that make any sense????

I'll just hang in there and hope the funds are around when the piece is finally released. Thanks for the reply Garm.

im very much in... most im sure cannot afford a supercharger(i know i cant), so this is actually a reasonable price considering the potential gains it could provide. id rather wait and have a properly engineered product than a rushed temperamental product.
