Technically we did say that we are right on track for a release in early March. If we really wanted to we could stretch that out until March 14th if we really really wanted to LOL. That would technically still be the first half of March meaning "early" March.

It was absolutely under 10 psi. Keep in mind that the dyno we showed was using the same kit that we plan on sending to CARB for approval. It would be pretty challenging to get a 10 pound kit through CARB.

I've had my Z for a year with N/A. I bought it because the Camaro wasn't availabile. Then the Camaro guys got their supercharger in just a few months. I know you guys had a prototype back G37 back in 5/09. Please, just give me a date when I can get your shop to install one!

You are 100% correct and believe me when I say we want this kit out more than anyone. We have had this kit in development for a long time. Unfortunately Steve's GT R race car had to be completed by a certain deadline. Because there were no deadline's for any other R&D project, the GT R took precedence for a few months. We spent about 4 or 5 months tearing apart and rebuilding and developing and testing our GT R and our engineers were buried in that project. Once that car finally left for the rally they were finally able to re-focus their efforts back to the supercharger.
