What is the standard turn around time for CARB approval? I'd assume it's not handled immediately upon application.

I'm sure you're right that it's not handled immediately by "the government." But, I would use commen sense/assume that 3 years is not the standard turn around time either... Just a thought...

PM from 12-28-2011 from Mike. Red emphasis added by me. I can only assume from that information that testing is a few month process, not few years process.

Thanks,

I'm sure you're right, but there's just no way to determine how much of the blame for delay goes where. It's pretty much irrelevant, as the kit will be done whenever it gets done. I agree that they could be a lot more transparent in the process of getting their kit certified. That would ease more than a few people's minds.

I hear ya there, and I guess there are just a lot of people that would like more transparency with the kit in question. Myself included which I'm sure is no secret by now.
