If you send it up to me i can measure that, and take a third party dyno... just saying.

Actually, Since you mentioned it.. The Center nut on that side was a Biznitch to get to.. ended up with Swivel deep Well To tighten that one. if you don't have the right tool for that.. then I can see your point.. Excellent.. again.. not an issue on mine. ... So are you 'really' from Hawaii... I spent 9 years of my life there.. USNAVY Retired..

As for the sound.. its a Gopro that was attached to the back of the car. Sorry I don't have any 'pro-grade' recording equipment.

As for the Catted Header.. It was a Prototype.. not going to happen as far as I know. Jason can correct me..

In other news.. I went on a 350 mile drive today.. kinda to get the ECU accustomed to the new setup.. It definitely feels stronger on the bottom end than the 1st Gen one. That and I got the best Gas mileage I have ever gotten in the car today.. 34 MPG.. up 5/10ths over my Previous best of 33.5.. this was cruising with the Cruise control set at 72 for 98% of the trip.. .. love having a Side Benefit..

So basically we have been getting hand jobbed regarding the August release?

Reading the updated information reminds me of the soup Nazi episode of Sinfeld....

No soup for you!

I don't know about all that.. Jason, as of Saturday, told me 3-4 weeks to start production. Thats all I know..Like I say.. haven't been keeping up with this thead... Following it ...yes.. contributing to it.. not until yesteday..

Jason might be able shine some more light on the subject. I just know what I was told. . Hope it works out.. Mainly because they are loosing Business and customers.. *sigh..

It'll come out eventually... If you're sick of waiting then get something else. There are plenty of other options. For the rest of us who aren't in a rush, this'll work just fine whenever it comes out.

I'd like to think that I've mostly kept abreast of the developments (i.e. have read every page of this thread), so am I unnecessarily hopeful when I read this in thinking "no clearance issues" means that it will fit with the OEM fans?
