we had a small delay due to a fedex shipping mishap, which has postponed us a couple days, so we hope to have NA numbers first thing next week.
sorry for the delays!!

So not a single run on an N/A engine as of yet? That seems strange. I also have not yet seen anyone deny that this intake (as shown) won't lose low end torque.
Maybe you could put some inserts in there or something so the N/A folks that want the look without the sacrifice can still have the option. It does look pretty damn hot!

Even a good driving on track and street woudnt be slowed by slight low end loss.

I vote we close this thread I have already read through 16 pages and I love the pics, etc... but it is pretty much at a dead end wait for NA now.
I vote we let Kinetix open a new thread titled "NA results are finally done for our new IM" and assume everyone is waiting.

still, if and when this becomes available, ill buy it just because it looks bad azz. also gotta keep in mind that kinetix is a 5 person company and whatever R/D they do probably takes 8times longer than say, crawford. yet i dont think crawford is much bigger- just more experienced.

think about it, u want the thread closed but everytime somebody posts with a stupid comment, like yours for instance, it goes right back to the top.
in your case, the best reply you could have posted would have been no reply at all.

btw: love your ride.

WOW!! I thought the NA numbers would be up by now!! Anyways, I agree this thread must be torture to all of you that must be waiting. Things never seem to go as planned.....oh well. Well whatever happens make sure to start another thread when the numbers are in....
