To ask someone to pony up $2700 for a kit that they don't know will make 5whp or 40whp without allowing them to even see pictures of what they are spending their money on is a very very tall order. I understand dynos may not be possible as race teams are not going to give their numbers up but you should at least be able to provide some pictures of the complete entire kit. Otherwise, it will seem to the general public that you would like to have someone else spend the cash to do the R & D on this kit. I'm not writing this post as a call out, but just a way for you to see it from another perspective.

However, this thread is lacking the substance that we usually see and expect in new product threads (ie. Photos of the finished product, installed pics, links to the company website with further info, before & after dyno comparisons, etc.).
Perhaps this thread was started prematurely.

Up to this point, your thread has been an epic fail.You shouldn't be getting all cocky now. Some of the criticisms expressed in this thread are apparently justified.

what I can't have my little moment to gloat. OK maybe I shouldn't have been so cocky but I knew what the outcome would be as these kits have been available overseas for the last 3 or 4 years. Just here it has been difficult because Jenvey isn't as widely known. If the ITB's had said HKS,Greddy Cosworth, ect.......... they would have been jumped on with no questions asked. But you have to start somewhere.I'm just glad Ivory and Hal took a chance on them.
