202 hp is definitely a good number especially with stock cat because i got 202 without cat. you will for sure get around 210 without the cat.

 

I heard from Scott last night that I am now on the top of the list and it will be shipping out this week! Woot!

I ordered 12/29/07.

 

It will definitely be by next mod.

 

stock FDs put out about 217 to the wheels...so thats pretty good - granted the gearing and torque numbers are different.

 

Forgive me for not keeping up with the entire thread, but i am assuming by the extaordinary wait time that these things are custom made upon each order (or group of orders), correct? Apparently they arent "stocking the shelves" with them. So it would be safe to say a general wait of 6-8 weeks is a safe bet?

 

Unofficially........"Yep" on all counts. I'm sure they will catch up at some point in the future and have some on hand. Lots of pre-orders and I imagine lots of interest since. Demand exceeds supply at the moment???????

 

Fixed.......didn't want anyone out there thinking the are heavy or something.

 

That is shitty Jason..... I get sick twice a year and it always happens at the worst times!

 

^^^ummmmm because they were afraid this wouldnt sell very well??? LOL yeah right.
They had to have known this would be a huge seller on all fronts. Doesnt make too much sense why they wouldnt have stocked up on such an anticipated solution prior to release but hey, im sure they had their reasons. Im sure there were budget reasons in the mix. Just hope they kick it into high gear so as to catch up w/ demand by end of Spring....of course thats when i plan to get it

 

also the weight, but its pretty sweet for NA rotary.

 

I thought the FD's were TT'd?

 

I believe he's referring to chickenwafer's NA RX-8 in comparison to the TT FD.

 

Point taken.......

 

If the kits were being built before taking orders you would still be waiting. Only noone would hav e the kit yet, and everyone would still be hounding them about when they were going to release. Either way i am sure they are working as quick as they can

 

if they are making them fast as possible, and they still do not have enough, they would still be building up there stockpile of units before they would release them and send them all out.

 

Hey guys,

I wanted to chime in and let everyone know we expect to ship 10-15 units this week!

We are working as quickly as we possible over here and appreciate your understanding, Scott

p.s. Hey Ray good news, I spoke with Betsey and she said your daughter signed for yours last week!

 

^^^ uh, oh... now what's goin' on???

 

We already waited 5 years for the ignition, what's another 6 weeks?

 

Scott, when you order these do you get billed upon shipment or billed up front?

 

I think billed up front, at least I did and I have not seen my tracking number yet.

 

Keep in mind that his entire business is not building ignition kits - I'm sure he has one or two other things going on

 

I got billed up front.

 

what does an ignition grounding kit do?

 

WOW...how about you go to page one and start reading...
