Hey guys. It sucks working in the heat. It took my friend and I whole 8 hours to engine swap his GSR last weekend in Lancaster, CA. 110-120* in my garage. *I'm old, fat & disabled.
Excuses deemed invalid.

I lived in Ridgecrest for 10 years. You want to talk about hot. That's why I worked on my GTO in the winter.

We're working on probably a dozen other projects and are a 1-2 man operation. We also work a regular 8-5 to finance these projects and then work another 25-40 hours a week after hours and during the weekend. Trust us when we say we're working on things behind the scenes and doing everything we can to accurately and quickly test the intake manifold. I've had it on and off my car 4-5 times in the past few weeks testing multiple setups and have probably 40 logs of multiple 3rd gear pulls. This month has been tough as personally I have been gone on business 12 days this month as well.

When an update worth sharing is ready, we will post it. There is a lot that goes into a project like this to do it right.

Thanks,
Eric

No worries, man. I was just kidding around. Not one real perspective buyer wants the R&D rushed.

Lets move closer to the beach. lol... The last thing I want to do right now is hot pulls of my our cars on the dyno and swapping a hot aluminum manifold on/off... Hopefully a few more days from now ill stop being a little bitch about the heat and be a man. lol Spent way too much time in the heat these past 2 weeks!

Only an Aussie, sounds like something my half-brother would say. Would definitely like to visit him though.
