Kits are extremely close to shipping. Right now the instructions are being checked/verified by one of our technicians. Whenever we develop a highly complex part like a supercharger system we like to give the instructions to one of our installation technicians so they can go through them line by line during an actual install. This way, if they have any questions or find something that should be changed, we can make those changes prior to shipping out kits. We are installing a production supercharger system on a local customer's car to complete this process. This is also the car that we will be using for CARB testing. Some of you local guys might recognize the owner...ABC 7 weatherman Dallas Raines.

We are also working on the instructions for the tuning process. These are pretty basic but we're hoping to use a really simple process for everyone to follow along. I don't want to say too much about this though as it is very unique and we are very excited about it. After this is completed we will be sending out the tuning software so people can begin sending us their ROM's so we can begin finalizing the tunes for everyone.

It is impossible for us to give an ETA of when our CARB testing will be completed because it is entirely dependant on CARB. I can confirm that about two weeks ago we sent CARB all of our documentation and they did confirm with us that we are the only company who has submitted for CARB approval on an aftermarket forced induction system for the VQ37. Now they need to review all of our information, the time frame on that process fluctuates. Then we get our approval for testing. Once we test the car the results get sent back to CARB for further examination. There are a lot of steps in getting CARB approval and there is just no way for us to get or give a definitive timeframe.
