I'm going to watch Speed by Designs 1000hp GT-R run the 1/4 mile this Friday in Tulsa. 1sexylexus, you can find them for under MSRP if you shop nation wide.

Sorry for the off topic, but we're all eagerly waiting for something. Seems to be the trend.

I'm going to leave a healthy bump here.


Has there been any progress?

This thread is 21 pages of "next week", "really soon", "on Monday", etc, etc, etc. Even the company themselves on 5/31 (3 weeks ago) posted: "We will be releasing a video and some preliminary dyno charts early next week for all of you!" Yet still - nothing.

I think we need to just let this thread die (just like all the other "tune" threads have) until there is some REAL info available, not just rumors built on hopes and dreams.

Not always. Marketing 101 is to keep people interested by giving them something to be curious about. Otherwise after a certain point without meat on the bone, people stop caring. And that's what we're seeing now.

Been down this road before, about 4 years ago. Spent $3,000 for nothing. I will believe this when I see it.

The thing about this whole situation is this: when a company promises something like "We will be releasing a video and some preliminary dyno charts early next week for all of you!" and then 3 weeks go by without a peep, it makes people even more skeptical about an already skeptical product. Why the delay? Is this company just completely full of it? Or were there problems? If it has been in development for 3 years and they are still running into problems as they're getting ready to finalize it for release, does that mean if/when they do release it that I will just have problems too? It sounded like they were on the verge of making everything public, then they just vanished. Not good PR. These days many companies like this rely heavily on enthusiast forums to drive their sales, or possibly even make up 100% of them, and if they can't even earn our confidence that's not a great start.

As some of the members already know, we will start our own thread releasing photos, videos, and dyno sheets from our product. This particular thread has gone very off topic and we would like to start a new one with real details, and results without rumors. We have been extremely busy here developing not only a tuning solution for Lexus, but packages for Porsche, Fiat, Ferrari, and BMW.

At this moment, the only thing that we are waiting for is the manufacturing of our new cases. Thank you all for being patient, we look forward to giving you all a tuning solution.
