The reason I called was b/c I was under the impression this kit was available but apparently it is not. I was actually calling to make the purchase as I need the lower plenum so I could ship it out to get my direct port nitrous project started. I was informed that only 2 prototypes are available. No time was given. I asked about the strut brace. They haven't even started on it.

I was looking to get GTR conversion before fine tune and get the strut brace later when they release it Im even interested in it before dyno results beacuse i dont care about dyno graphs but looks like we wont see anything till all MHI kit are shipped.

I might get my interest back to Doran racing manifold or whoever makes one first to eliminate this stock plastic manifold

yeeeah, sounds about right about how things are going there right now. We'll see if the MHI kit is ever finished...

I hope it shouldn't be much Longer as one of the cars they have been working on is mine I can say from the mock up of the piping they are doing on the car it's going to be sexy.

You got a rough estimate on when you will get your car back?

It will be going to polish once it's all put together nicely. I'm not wanting to do anything that will delay the already long wait such as thermal costing etc although I would like to

I think thermal coating is less labor intensive than polishing. I had mine powdercoated black.
