About a month before I checked in with them. Rotrex works on their own schedule, but CJ said it's usually 3-5 weeks before they hear back. Could be longer could be sooner, all depends on rotrex.

I'll be checking in again in a few weeks to see what the status is on the warranty claim. I bought a replacement unit yesterday, so if the warranty claim gets approved I'll get reimbursed for replacing the unit.

As promised I'll post the verdict on the warranty claim when i hear back. If it gets denied and I can get their reasoning on why it was denied I'll post that as well.

hey just wondering, is this carb approved yet??? I really like this supercharger kit and my buddy has it, but he has to strip it out every time he's gnna undergo smog testing.

If this kit isnt carb legal soon, gnna either get the jackson racing or vortech supercharger kit,

Thanks

Not CARB legal. Apparently still in validation phase.

You sound like me a year ago. Nothing had changed for them since then. Pretty sure nothing will a year from now either.

They don't even post here anymore, tbh. Most tags in posts are unanswered. They were inactive for several months straight before doing one post and then nothing again.

Evacuation plan after the smoke and mirrors perhaps?

I suggest reading even just the last 5 to 10 pages or so. Belt issues (broken belts among them) are common. But read the feedback for yourself straight from the horse's mouth, from other actual owners - that's what this thread is for.

Nah, they put out a new kit for the S2000 and that is probably where their focus is now.

Oh, so just plain neglect/abandonment, lol.

The lack of progress, status, and updates on CARB approval is frustrating.

That kit came out a few years ago.

Been watching this for a while, there goes a kraftwerks purchase from me. Doesn't look like folks are happy.

A Key question to ask in any owners thread should be "would you buy this kit again?"

If the peanut gallery doesn't say "yes" then find another kit.
