lol it seems like they should higher a couple more people, even if its only temporary. If they would have had 2-3 people concentrated just on this lancer turbo kit, each person could have probably got paid $8,000 in the last month or two (If the kit sales for $4,000 a kit, $1.5k goes for parts, $500 to the shop, the rest to employees. Just throwing out random numbers, I have no clue how much it cost to produce this kit.) Not to mention that the shops name would be more popular and common, the kit would be ready so he could technically fire those 3 people and keep the profits for the shop in the future.

Sometimes the answer to a problem is not as simple as getting more people . A few months back we had some major issues and we've had to step aside form many projects and this being one of them . We have been trying to get in a local car for the last 2 months but since we had to move shops that set us back on projects we had then and the move with other delays have not been easy to get over as fast as we first thought . Once we had a few delays that set's off a chain re-action that about got out of control . We're close to getting things back on track but we're just taking things one day at a time now . We have about 10 customers ready and willing but we have not been able to get things settled down as fast as we all would have liked . We did ask a local to drop his car off by the end of this coming week , lets see how soon we can get this going again.

Here's a question would this setup work with a piggyback like the split second one rrm sells??

The reason i'm asking is cause where i live nobody is really familiar with our cars the closest
place that does lancer/evo flash/tuning is bout 10 hours away. So i'm figuring get the piggy
it has all the programs and any smart tuner guy i'm hoping should be able to work with that...

So do u guys think thats do able?

im not exactly sure, I will ask frank the next time I talk to him, but I think included in the turbo kit will be just a basic flash from Jestr, although im not sure how they will "ship" it to you, whether in the form of a new piggyback or something else.

They could always make a piggy back like the RRM turbo kit comes with. Seems to be the easiest solution if your not near a tuning shop,
