Does that mean that the cars that are out there already, like Shumby's, have cast pieces that are too thin?

No, the pieces out right now are fine, but Sam went back and wanted to improve the design and is doing so. One reason is to maybe help stage 1 kits play better with LTHs, no test done yet as I am waiting on my piece currently also.

Every kit that is out there is 100 % on the car and beaning driving by the customers. there is no cars that are down or have any sort of a safety or driveabilty problem or a check engine light or any thing like that . We did discover a little inconsistency in the intake peace which could lead to a boost taper over 6500 rpm, The rest of the power band is 100 % where is suppose to be . also few customer reported a little excessive flutter from the by pass valve on some vehicles which we are addressing right now . Overall customer are getting these kit, putting them on and driving away .
