I'm thinking the 20 on order are people with a little more dough than the average or companies that might have a sponsered show TL car or something. It's like buying those phones on eBay for 600 + dollars months before they are released so you can so called get them before they are sold out. I guess I need numbers and proof of performance before giving someone over 3G's for only a few pics.

It's actually closer to $4,500. And I believe they (Comptech) have ordered 20 units. They don't have 20 sales already.

The previous kit could be had for around $3,200 but that is at cost from what I have been told. However, we didn't have any fancy piggyback fuel/timing controller that you guys have. We only had a voltage clamp.

Yes he made them and yes it would work on the 3rd Gen however the tuning ability of the 3rd Gen TL is pretty much unknown.

They assemble the entire kit but they don't make the actual blowers in house. They get them from Eaton.

No like most companies they try to keep them in stock. However if they are waiting on something your order will be backordered obviously. It's not build to order. If they have it instock you'll get it ASAP if not you'll need to wait.
