i was just trying to say that unless the car is really nice and hot when you strap it on a dyno there wont be any gains... like you said this just prevents loss.

^^ True, when your engine is cold, you won't see much benefit with this. However, how long is an engine really "cold" ? Not very long.

Thus far this seems like a viable product and there are a lot of people willing to assist by prepaying. I should hopefully have an answer by the end of this week on pricing and availability. I'll keep you all posted.

In the mean time keep the list going please... it's definately getting better and better.

Right now it is being programmed into the cnc and fixture plating is being made. Until that is done i won't know the initial costs. After that is done and i can take out initial costs from an actual production run stand point i'll know more.

Seems my machinist was itching for the 4th's vacation time. He bailed early on Friday so i'll have to find out next week what's going on.

Okay guys i've got everything in order... unfortunately i couldn't get it in the price i first thought. Damn machinist won't budge on it.

Keep in mind though that you will get both the TB and Intake Manifold Spacers!! Not individually.

$90 SHIPPED
Paypal: boeturbolancer@yahoo.com

I need those that will pay in advance to step up. I actually Need a minumum of 10 guys to make this happen. If i don't get the 10 i'll have to refund all cash and delay the products for a few months.

I'll keep things in this post for now as I can't guarantee carrying these products until i have all 10 people prepaid. Expect delivery within 2 weeks from date of #10's payment.

Please start another list for those that have paid...
