[4sfed]

Info please?  Status?  Any news?  Updates?  ...please?

Hello?  Any ETA or even info about possible roadblocks you ran into?

8 months + w/o any updates whatsoever.

That can't be a good sign.

Go air to water...

Matt Robinson at Gearhead said supplier issues have caused a delay. The prototype works, it’s a drop in to the OEM.

The first batch for people who prepaid is supposed to be ready by end of this month.

Oooooooook

Well that's good. :thumb:

However, where was this "pre-pay" posted at? Cuz I see none of it contained here.

I, and likely quite a few others, would've plopped down a deposit as well to secure one.

***side note***

Congrats on your certification achievements there BJ / SBS. Bravo my friend. Well done.

Well as you know, there are some of us who don't do FB. So he's already limiting his potential pool/base of customers.

Please LMK how I can secure one, as well as any others that may be on the forums exclusively.

"End of this month" availability would've factored well into/with my other installs occurring around same time frame.

Damnit.

Couldn’t help myself...

I've seen a couple of your posts stating you moving to water to air, but I've not found a post discussing or describing it.  Is there a post of your water to air IC conversion?  If there isn't one, WOULD you?  I'd LOVE to see/read it.

I wedged this water to air intercooler into my Flex.

:bow:

how has it been working for you?  That looks like an off the shelf unit that you then customized for dual air inlet?  What are you using for filters on the fresh air side of turbos?

all the Questions i was going to ASK, and more....

 

[SHOdded]

Common core for both turbos
Boss for drain plug
1 psi less drop across the intercooler than last prototype
Hopefully before SEMA in October
Re-tune will be required
