I think it is too short sighted to make any assumptions on the development of anything in the auto industry. These things take time and cost money. I know that I am always interested following the progress of platforms and seeing improvements even if they are incremental. There is not a "perfect" kit out there and because of that there is always room for improvement.

Be appreciative that there are still companies looking to enhance the offerings out there. Without that things would become quite stagnant.

4+ years on the back burner is a different animal from "taking appropriate time" to develop parts. It's not short sighted to make judgements based on repeated observations from a company saying updates any day now then going quiet for over a year without following through.

No comment on the "be appreciative" bit.

Perhaps some exaggeration above, but hopefully you see the point.

Doesnt even make sense to hype a product thats no where near launching. If anything youve lost clients becuase it aggravates people.

They did do this before but now they are actually being produced. I put my name in the hat and would swap my kit out if I won depending on how they do the motor mount.

So they're finally ready to sell? Would love more info on the kit. Website showing some details but it's scant and no price. ESP since they're not far from me.

If they are making 24 then that must mean they have indeed finalized the design after a few revisions. @JohnCES would have to elaborate beyond this.

I was also a winner of that first giveaway like 3yrs ago. I ended up changing my pick from the N54 mani to whatever their most expensive diesel mani was and selling it.

They should be feeling some pressure. Lots of log style bottom mounts hitting market Speedtech cast released. VTT cast looming. 4n tube probably available. Motiv T4 CNC looming.

Only so many folks in the market. Gonna be hard to get them to switch if they go with another brand first.
