To follow your line of thinking, just think of the recognition a successful supercharger kit could bring to a company when your competitor is stumbling. Instead of driving a stake in their heart, lets just trickle these things out and give them time to repair their reputation (and kit).

As to being about me, from the number of posts in all the supercharger threads, it would seem there is plenty of shared interest.

YOU were the one that said YOU were annoyed cuz YOU might have to wait longer. I didnt see the words the community or us. And big sponsorships can come from big HP cars for these companies. Im sure they can find a balance for both. I really doubt this is delaying the SC any, they are just trying to get it right since the other is having problems and they dont want to have the same thing happen to them. If they come out with a kit that doesnt require a car to be parked for 2 months after its installed they still got the one up even if it came out a little later. patience is a virtue I guess.

Well stated. I know Sam very well and I know he is a quality control freak.

You guys crack me up.. GTM was talking about development of their supercharger kit in Sept 09, with a big announcement in what March 2010? Now it is mid-August 2010, almost 1 year since they first talked about it..

Stillen is the same way..

I think patience has been shown and exhausted..

Now, still in for UPDATES.. Someone is going to sell me a kit once it is proven. I'm not a beta tester unless I'm getting it for free.

Im with you on that and if I cant get my GS LS3 vette here soon I will settle for a SC kit for the Z. Im still leaning towards GTM and would hate for them to come out too soon and my car be sitting in the garage or shop. I dont pay a monthly payment to have my car sittin.
