The cam is not ready yet. I am getting a little run around from machinist but it is cause he want to make sure he does not mess them up. Call Monday for an update. I will call him for an update too. By the way, I will have a HEAD ready on Monday. No one has bought it yet so first guy to call gets it.

I been wanting to ask this for a while Rock...

about the cam, upgrades only to the mivec profile?

I know it aint good for business, but specs on lift and duration would be fine, as well as overlap

Idle issues dont bother me, but please be sure to post if we need any knid of tuning for the cams depending on stage, ie: stage 2 idles with stock ecu program

I know stage 1 will, but most of us power guys plan on stage 2 and above, so, as always we want all the info. We know you dont have problems with it since you help us all the time and we thank you for that

Spoke to Machinist. He could not open my CD with specs. Tomorrow I will send him another one. Specs are not final. Sorry for delay. Not avoiding questions.

ive talked to rob at length many times before and im sure im not the only one who trusts that he wont let something out the door if its going to get a bad rep or isnt worth what he charged. their a good group and i preordered mine with good faith in them, and to help out the community in being able to give a review. i have a dyno appointment set up for saturday and ill set up another one as soon as i get the tracking number. these dyno sessions are costing me $100 each time i go, and to be honest the numbers dont matter to me, i care about how it feels. But every mod ppl ask what the exact gains are and stuff like that and i feel bad for these vendors who arent as big is Greddy and cant afford to do that with every single mod. so dont get on anyone for ordering blind bc im doing it so YOU know what you're getting.

I love what you say. We will not release crap. That is why this is taking a little longer than we thought. As for blind faith, many of you buy Greddy, HKS, AEM without even holding them to the standard you guys hold us to. We care more about our rep than they do cause we only play with a couple cars like Lancer. We will not let you guys down. MIVEC cam is more complicated than a standard cam. That is why we are taking so long. Again sorry for the delays.

Seriously people, You guys would buy name brand stuff all day long if they made it for the lancer ralliart. Why would you buy name brand stuff all day long? becuase they are name brand stuff. Road Race is not the Brand you see all over import tuner or super street and they cant flaunt there money around and dyno every air filter they sell. But at the same time, since they are a *small* company, they work on a certain type of car. Fortunutly for us, they work on the Lancer Ralliart. They have so much experience, so much effort, so much development, so much experience and labor into our motor and drivetrain. Now would you rather trust a Huge company that makes 300 intakes a day for a civic to make parts for your lancer? or would you rather trust a company that specializes, takes there time, and puts huge amounts of effort into the lancer Drivetrain. (and the lancer community)

I'd rather wait a few extra weeks and wait for an awesome cam to come out than have it rushed over just to make a couple bucks. They are taking there time to work out the kinks and really plan it out and make it nice. Besides, if the cam was done RIGHT NOW!!! how many of you would buy it??? Just one person. You people are rushing ROCK to make the product, only to "see the dyno's of the cam" Instead of rushing them to see the dyno's, let them take there time to make a quality product.

As you guys know, the product is in the works. We have the PRIVILAGE of knowing they are making it. Why rush them? let them take there time and make a quality product.
