For us they go by too fast! Just a quick update- all the intercoolers have had the support bungs welded on, the radiators have the support bungs welded on and inlets outlets modified/welded. New side mount brackets, duct work, and lower mounts are in process. So everything is coming together nicely.

hmmm, update would be nice? Not trying to bash anyone here, but lately many vendors has been telling us that they are getting things done and cannot hold the original promise. At first you stated that it takes 3 weeks turn around time, and since payment its been 2 months.
I know you guys are working hard and all, but I strongly believe that if it cannot be done within a time frame DONT start it.
Again, I know this is/will be a great product however I've been giving the run-around in this GB. If I knew it would take this long (2 months since payment), I couldve waited 2 months and used the money somewhere else whereas I am sitting here out of 1200 waiting and waiting.
Seriously Vendors, if you say X amount of time, stick to that or dont even start the GB.
Sorry Logan, this is not just towards you but this has been like a "trent" in many of the GBs lately and I just need to let that out.

I gave a update a couple days ago, its hard to get on more than once every few days. I totally understand the frustration, we do not enjoy taking longer any more than anyone else. The intercoolers being on back order were the biggest setback of about a month. Especially when I checked ahead of time and they were "suppose" to be in stock. But I do give apologies to everyone for the increased wait.

Yes or No??? Can all the buyers recieve their purchase items at the end of this month now that things are progressing. Working 10hr days should leave PLENTY of room for completion I believe.
There's 200 hrs after July 4th and not including weekends for completion of 5 kits. Very resonable I believe.
Happy 4th everyone!!

I feel i know how all the long hours effect everyone.
I've been working 12 to 16 hours 7 days a week since april 25. And finally got 2 days off. I still have until October 7 working the same schedule. I'm definatly burned out that's for sure.
I'm know everyone is in different stages of their build and have learned that patients is a vertue that we all need to enable in to our selves. **** happens I am aware of that.
As for AzEs comment about the other GBs around here i agree.
Logan: keep up the good work I'll continue my support in this GB for a great product.
So what do you think of throwing in something for the delay? Lol
Say.... Uhm the ic ducting for the hood. Jk but if you could that would be great.
Well bs aside keep up the good work Logan.

We will see what we can do. The margin on these kits is already so low, hard to afford to throw in much. :/ We appreciate the support!

Shipping to canada is not a problem. Would have to look it up. They ship in two or three boxes, and in the U.S was about $100 or so. The venting would be designed to work with the stock hood once cut to match the square of the ducting.

I may be able to help on this one...
I bought the car in the pics in this thread. I'm pretty sure this is what he is talking about as far as cutting the hood:
...I know where you can find a hood with a square hole cut in it but I'm not sure it would be easy to ship.

The heat here in ohio is killing us, but we are trucking through. TIG welding is difficult with sweat going in your eyes, and no fan can be used. Otherwise we are trying to get 2-3 kits out this week, and 3 more in the two weeks after. I have a full day of tuning to do on thursday this week and tuesday next week. Otherwise I am on the v-mounts solely. Peter has been finishing up the car projects that need to go out, but starting friday he should be free.
