Or the product is MIA somewhere in Japan 
Ray still does give updates, which is nice.
Scott, tried calling you today but no answer. Will try to give a call again tomorrow I suppose.

We do offer more cost effective solutions than work very well in turbo and N/A applications as well. (please specify when ordering)
We will be happy to include these with your Ignition Solution box when shipping.
We appreciate your business, Scott

So I installed mine last night. After several F-words, which are inevitable... The situation was kind of tight, and I was to stubborn to move my K&N intake until I was 50% into the directions... I also dropped 1 acorn bolt, which caused the other one to get lost within the night. Then today, once I drove to the hardware store, even though I tightened the last two remaining acorn bolts, 1 fell off. So once I got to the hardware store I decided to just buy some winged bolts. It's ALOT easier to tighten, although I will admit it doesn't look as pretty.
Anyway, just like I expected throttle response came back. When I first drove it though, my Racing Beat tune seemed to be tuning horribly, because as soon as I would hit 7,000 RPM's it slowed a lot. Now that I've driven it today, and reset whatever as much as I could, the car seems to be running great. The first thing I noticed is how the engine starts and idles. It doesn't jump around or seem to have a hard time maintaining the exact RPM it wants.
I'm going to wait for a non-humid day in Houston to feel any power difference though... I can tell a difference but it's 80 degree's...
Also, I talked to Scott, great guy. Sorry though for leaving that message! haha, a short temper is a reason why I don't post many times...

Power returned to what it was + some when I installed the stock coils with some upgraded wires months ago....
The best thing I immediately noticed that this coil upgrade did was boost my "garage door opener" signal by at least twice the distance. I used to have to drive up to the garage door, turn the car off, press the "garage door opener" button and then restart my car. Now I just press it even before I get to the driveway, and the thing opens.... Placing that ground there, or somehow messing with the electricals of the car, made other stuff work better.
Now that the engine seems to be tuning itself better I do notice a definite increase of power.
The sad part is that I'm not really "making" horsepower, I'm just making the best out of what gas I get... By saying that, my mileage has increased A LOT. I can't say how much because since I got the coils I've had a pedal to the metal mentality. But simply coasting requires half the throttle distance to get the same effect.
Worth 700 bucks definitely... I think a forum rule should be in place
If another nub walks in and asks how much intake/exhaust/flywheel, practically anything but a turbo will get them in power? The answer should always be, "why need more air when stock is barely efficient to maintain the modifications"

So i installed Mine last night, It was a pretty simple install. pretty straight forward and not to difficult. just follow the instructions and you should be alright.
However, i was pretty pissed when my check engine light came on and the car would not go about 4500 RPM without sounding like it was on a two step. I hooked up the Scanalyser and realized i was a dumbass and forgot to plug the MAF back in
.
Anywho. i can see a definate improvement on the way it drives. Just like everyone says, if feels alot smoother and throttle responce is a little better. I am definately pleased.

Out of curiosity, I know you were in the middle batch of ordering. What was your exact wait time from order to delivery? It has gotten quicker, but still want to gauge it.

Ya, I'm being serious. Bumper removed, oil cooler slightly nudged. Hood squished and forced the coolant reservoir up above the engine. Leaked coolant and the alternator belt came off. Everything in front of the intake seems to be fine, passenger fender is fucked, driver fender is scratched, once again bumper DNE.
Craziest of all is that my rear wheel is split in half. I don't mean the "look at the car from the side and you can see a crack going up down", I mean "look at the car from the front/rear and see a crack in the middle of the wheel (that is if you could see through the rubber tire). But if you looked next to the brakes you'd see the wheel is totally cracked.
Atleast the ignition solution still works! Even after the accident (and somehow even though the alternator belt was off) the engine started and sounded fine.... Other than overheating....

Thats terrible man, ABS and DSC didn't help much I guess. You must have been hauling some ***?
I love the "hit the trees with torque" comment, at least you can still joke after your Baby has been hurt

Oh, I will be joking the whole f-ing time... I'm severely depressed. I will see today if the car is totaled. Or if I will need a new bumper, fenders, and hood. Everything else (including the doors) are all aligned perfectly as before the accident.
Hilariously enough if the car isn't totaled, and I need all those new pieces... You know they's gonna be after market... Accolade type c all the way, and cf hood.
Of course if it is totaled than I'm getting my money and a motorcycle. f*** the economy, I'll get 50 mpg on the highway....
