I might do an initial "guinea pig" run (in other words, introductory special pricing) after we get the kit all dialed in so we can get some kits out there for promo. Just an idea. I know it will be great but it always helps to generate some WOM (word of mouth).

I wouldn't mind being your Puget Sound promoter. ; ) I do love my MT A-Spec suspension though. It'd be tough to part with.

CAN I be your East Caost Guinea pig? I can rep the MD/DC/VA area.

I've been eagerly awaiting this kit for months since I first read about it. You may remember that you even talked me into waiting for it on the phone. I had called you ready to buy the TSX kit, but you told me I should wait.

So I am waiting and would love to be your East Coast Rep!

I'm very disappointed with you Marcus. I'm in the 626, retired and you don't even get in touch with me? I'm the one who was looking into the BBK and you installed my SC/Meth kit. Come on man! Anyhow, I have A-Spec currently, but would like a very slight drop, so yeah interested in this.

I have slowly been getting more asian as time goes by. It's either the cars or the customers. Not sure which.

NO UPDATES?

Two requests for an update and no response...

I've been following this thread from near the beginning. I am wondering when we can realistically expect to be able to buy this kit?

It's been a long wait. At this point, I am starting to consider other options. I was really excited about this kit, but it still seems to be far away...

Am I right or wrong (hopefully I am wrong)?

Sorry guys was out on vacation for a while. But I am back now. The latest update I have is we installed the kit and made some determinations on how we are going to tune the production kit. The customer provided more feedback on how this system handled after the alignment but the results of our tuning is still the same. I just got off the phone with function/form and they are communicating these final tuning changes with their factory now. We are pushing for production parts to become available to SHIP around the end of Sept with luck!!!

I also sourced a Type-1 version kit and sent that one to another tester who will need a bit of time to get us the details on how it works, about 1-2 weeks.

Is this date for real or is it "round-about" date?

I never put my wheels on this summer because I was waiting for this kit. Since this thread came out, I have driven over 10k on my car and the summer is gone.

How can new top hats and re-valving take this long?

Not to be a dick, and I am sure I'll get flamed... But this thread is pretty annoying.

As you can see, I wrote a week ago. Still no response...

And before that, the last time I posted I got the same... LONG delay in response. This project in my opinion has taken incredibly long, and the interest is waning.

I think F2 lost a customer to Megan. I have been waiting ALL summer for these. At this point, screw it... I'm tired of waiting and getting a response every few weeks when I ask a question.

No need for me to drop my car now with Winter approaching. But come the Spring, I'm in for some KW's! If nothing at least I saved some dough by not dropping a car that later was totaled. Thx

Lol

70% of these threads usually turn out this way. They usually still follow through however the dates given are generally twice as long as what is posted.
