If you look at many of the big product hits in the past few years (ie, iphone, iphone 3g, 2010 camaro, M3, xbox 360, PS2, 370z, etc) they all had something in common. The customer new more or less what it did, how much it was going to cost, and when it was going to be purchasable. I don't mean to be a whiner but I would love a roots style supercharger but if I don't know what kind of output Stillen or others will make, how much it will cost, and most importantly when it will be available, I, and a VERY many others will find another place in this tough economy to put their thousands of dollars. I am not asking Stillen and others to "let the cat out of the bag", but I think it would be reasonable and still enticing to give a HP and TQ range that is achievable, rough date of release, and rough price. And of course disclose this with the chance that variables can cause these numbers to change. For what it is worth for those reading this, if you are thinking I might me full of crap. I own three successful businesses and am considered by many to be a marketing expert. I would love to hear from you at Stillen. Thanks
