it's not snowing in your garage? or in a parking garage? or under a bridge?? how about some startup / idle / and throttle blips also??

Sounds like a reasonable amount of work for someone trying to sell a performance part.
So they need to pull a driveshaft and run dynos.
What's the problem. Was just on the order link ... thinking gee, sure wish there was a dyno graph.
$500 and installation is a chunk of money for "I dunno"

A dyno would be hard seeing as though the SHAWD system doesnt like to be on the dyno. Its act all haywire from what people have said. The only way to get an accurate one would be to disconnect the driveshaft like neuronbob(I think) and a few others have done. Thats a bit much and you still would only get FWD HP #s. I'd expect 8-15 whp and wtq throughtout the powerband maybe a little less or more seeing as though every other FWD Honda V6 has gained 10-15whp and 10-17wtq from this. I saw the picture of the RV6 Jpipe RL ChiTown got and its GLORIOUS! 
I will be ordering one as soon as I here back from Richie. Funds are on standby.

They don't have dynos for the 4G TL either. It may be due to the inconsistencies of the SH-AWD on the dyno. Companies have been bit in the past when they claim power increases that are false or are not real world attainable. Mazda comes to mind with the RX8 class action suit their customers turned on them. It also does not likely bid in favor enough of RV6 to run a dyno with hit or miss readings. They sound like a small company to me and are likely banking on their reputation among forum enthusiasts to carry them through this experiment.

Why? I wonder if Rich is extending 3 more. When I spoked with him yesterday he told me he is only doing 5 total but needed 3 orders to built the jpipe. Hopefully I'll see mine the second week of March, maybe I can meet with L's and do exhaust comparison with the jpipe. I hope I won't be disapointed

The problem is not everyone just has $500 sitting around for a mod for their car within 48 hr notice. If it's a matter of modifying an AWD TL jpipe, this shouldn't be a limited production.
