I'm feeling KW just makes up time estimates. I've asked them questions and receive 6-8 weeks, another person hears 1-2 weeks for the same upgrade. Maybe they have no clue and just give out standard responses.

I speak to Jeff the deputy general manager directly. He's normally on top of things.

Is this kit suitable for use in cold weather (daily driven all year car) or will I have problems with low temps and the S/C oil?

It's the KW/Skunk 2 specific to our kit unit. They shot me a deal I couldn't pass up, it's pre public release unit #1.

They finally charged it Friday, they said once I see the charge to expect it out that same day/and they'll have tracking the following business day. So I should be able to confirm when it'll be in my possession tomorrow.

I gave a card number a few weeks ago and have been told they are waiting on a bracket. Such a good deal so no complaints, I just want it soon.
