Wow, this thread really went crazy. I for one had a few reservations about the original design, so the fact that the relase is being held up because of this new tubular design is fine by me. I really started this thread because we weren't being updated on the progress, I didn't mean for it to be a big "pick on J oliver" thread. Just wanted a update.

Ok all pick on me all you want cause it is in production and are being made at a decent rate. I no longer will be answering ANY questions on the RX7 Forum, all questions will have to be directed to CP Racing's website where I will answer them as I get them.
The website will be launched as soon as we have decent amount of stock to sell. Thanx to all the haters and especially the ones who believed in me and my product you are all about to be amazed if I do say so myself.

Thanks J. You've done a fine job in staying abouve the crap being tossed your way. I am amazed at the negative trash being directed at you; I don't see anyone else even THINKING about 1st Gen aftermarket mods, let alone something as aggressive and complex as this. My kudos to you for taking on this project.

As oppose to trying to figure out the jigsaw puzzle this thread has become - I pose the following question to anyone in the know:

Is we expecting a new kit soon, or is we ain't?

Chris's vacation actually got extended for a couple extra days according to Pat.

The system is good to go, it's just a matter of production now.

I've also had a chance to poke at and play with the system.

I haven't driven with it yet, but I have to say, from everything I've seen, it's as good, if not better than advertised.
