A little delay for sure as i want to make sure what we ship is perfect. I'll be able to compare the two factory cold side tubes hopefully tomorrow.

Thanks for directing me to the TSB. Now I need to find out for sure if GM made any changes, and, if so, what they were exactly. Sigh...

No adjustments are being made. When we made the fixture for the cold side tube we forget to note the length. Because it's easier to install with the pipe being a little shorter and including a longer piece of silicone, the parts we have already built are fine. I forgot to make a note about the length of the silicone. As far as extending the GP, it seems everyone always waits until the very last day. Almost all of the orders were placed within two days of closing. So extending it out again will just delay production. We need to use the same Mandrel bender to do both 2 1/2" and 3" so constantly swapping tooling is a time killer. We want to get all products built, coated, boxed and shipped. Extending it again will also create a bunch more paperwork for Beth, of which she simply doesn't have the time. The price everyone paid is still a great deal considering our boost kits use the much better stainless band clamps than our competitors and our kits have no welds, look better and use less silicone couplers than any other.

Thanks everyone.

Up-date

I will be bending the remainder of the tubing tomorrow and dropping off another 7 kits for coating Monday. They will be ready to pick-up by Wednesday when I'll drop off the kits we build tomorrow.

Thanks again everyone. Shipping starts Monday and will continue until all are gone.

I posted an up-date directly before your post.


Yes, the GP is over but our prices are still better than any other for the quality we offer, the one piece tubes with no welds and the stainless T-bolt band clamps.

Update

They are working on them lol. I'm not sure yet how we are looking, I'll know more tomorrow. But I do know the powdercoaters are a bit behind and we are working our little buns off to get these finished for you guys but we are also trying to finish the dp and header gp at the same time and there are only 2 guys back there working on all of this. But we are making progress, Dan has some more bending to do and is dropping off some more for powder coating later today.

TTFN, I'll be bakk.

Only the first few have gone out. So a majority are still pending. I just found out that some will be ready to be picked up at the powdercoaters end of this week so things are moving along, yay!!!!!

I told Dan, he likes the idea, but since we are behind he hasn't had the time to work on it. I doubt he will in time for these kits, but I've noted it down to do for later.

Thank you for sharing your ideas!

I'd be willing to wait for a reasonable amount of time if you would want to use me as a guinea pig.

Well, it would be awhile. Frankly right now we just do not have the time. There are only a few of us here and we are swamped. It's one of those things we would love to do. As soon as we have time lol. And I don't think we would need a guinea pig for that. It's just a matter of getting the stencil made us and us getting paint.
