I'm waiting patiently for results, but every time you bump this thread to carry on the inane banter you give me and everyone else false hopes that there's new information or some actual discussion about the product instead of more whining.
Can't argue with your point towards this guy BUT here's a point I'd like to make.

Nameless: Hasn't released a header but has been posting in development thread for ~8 months and has secured a large but immeasurable number of sales by doing so from the customers gobbling up the updates and cheering them on while waiting patiently for the end result.

AVO: The "AVO" posting in this forum was the US distributor for the company building an designing the kit in another country. We were provided frequent updates by the OP even when it was just to say there's been a delay on X piece of info so here's your new ETA. They've obviously impressed even though they were not DIRECTLY involved with the R&D.

Now to Innovate: They posted a thread with some teaser info and are obviously a US partner to the company designing this kit in Australia. They've posted next to no info and not responded to many (if any) questions. Granted, they are not the same company doing the R&D like AVO BUT as a partner that is already committed to selling this and having already released pricing they absolutely have access to info and could certainly satiate some of the desire for more information in this thread but have not.

End result.... as much as I'd like to see how this thing performs and as much as I'm hoping it is exactly what I'm looking for I am going to have an EXTREMELY hard time convincing myself to buy from Innovate.

Perhaps they may still get my money if @Visconti sells it himself like he is with Vortech and I can look to him for future updates/questions/issues but I doubt I'll by anything straight from Innovate.

I'm glad i skipped to the end after reading the first two pages I didn't know it was 60 pages of waiting. This kit definitely has my attention I just hope it delivers.

Grammar corrections wouldn't be needed if this thread had a dyno.


Just saying.

Were they going for CARB? Is that what's taking so long?

I don't know how long it takes to get CARB certified, but it's not fast and it's not easy.
