It's amazing how you couldn't stop him from posting before, and now that he's a vendor, you can't GET him to post. I think he's got something working in the background concerning the diffs, but Bosco must be using the new Wilson keyboard.

Thanks everyone I'm out of the EvoM jail, and I just want to bring you up to speed on the many new things have happened while I’ve been away.

Wilson Manifolds and I started discussing options regarding what to do with the intake manifold line, employment, and purchase of all the rights to components I have designed past, present and future. After many phone conversations with Wilson Manifolds we had reached an agreement. Some may or may not know this, but I have been battling a bone marrow issue, and yesterday brought more bad news health wise. At this time my friend of nearly twenty years, and his business partner made me an offer of employment, insurance, and the comfort of financial security when I am facing an uncertain future and for that I will always be grateful.

I have been hired by Wilson Manifolds to take care of the NHRA Top Fuel and Funny Car teams out here in Indy, also I will be responsible for new product development for the Evolution 8-9-10. With the resources available, the sky is the limit. You will now begin to see many of the components I always wanted to build, but was limited by funding and production capabilities. Joining Wilson has opened the doors to technology not readily available even to me.

In the very near future there will be a major development in intake manifold design. Something that has not been seen on any Evolution…ever. State of the art does not even come close to describing what is coming.

On to the Wilson Diff Eliminator, Most-Wanted has agreed to test this unit in the coming weeks. With AWD Motorsports doing the install. There will be a full installation thread in the works in the coming weeks, also there will be various driveline components designed as we get into this race season.

Lots of cool stuff on the way so stay tuned and don’t forget to check out the vendor announcements section for breaking news, Indy

Congrats, Indy and welcome back. I can hardly wait to see what you're planning for Evos. I bet the new stuff will be state of the art, and very well done. Hurry up, already!

BTW, congratulations on the new job status.

I picked up the Diff Eliminator Kits yesterday from heat treat and black oxide and wow, everything fits and look great. We are pretty excited to have the first kit in Most Wanted's car for testing and evaluation. Mike at AWD Motorsports will have a kit in his hands today and I'm sure he will make a post to give his impressions. Thanks, Indy

Indy Jim ---> You sure do come out with some awesome designs. Quickly seeing a need for something like this and then making it happen. Congrats again on what you and 9sec9Tom have accomplished with your Wilson Sport Compact division. We are very excited for you and the future.
