I wolud be interested in an adapter as well on the "group buy" if it becomes available.

[idheaton]

i'm in.

just a suggestion...maybe we should keep a running list of those interested...every following person interested copies the previous list and adds their name the list in their post so it's easy to see the total of people like I've seen in prior group buy threads

I've taken the liberty of making an initial list in order of those that have voiced positive interest in a group buy, so forgive me if your name shouldn't be on it.

There isn't a lot thats DIY on these cars... RThe video will be part of our training reference material for our program thats designed to help independent shops successfuly work with these engines. Enthusiasts can also benefit from some of the info, so some of it will be shared online.

I'd be even more interested in a group buy on the IMS upgrade kit.

that would mean a group buy of engines, as the IMS upgrade requires a total engine tear down and build up.

The IMS retrofit is being tested now as a separate component to the upgrade and CAN BE instaklled into SOME ENGINES without a full tear down.

Find an organizer for the group buy and have him get the order to me via email, then we;ll go from there on the spin on filter upgrade.

Lots of good stuff coming up soon, the new facility is 95% complete and the new website is being loaded in a few days..

Which engines can handle the "IMS retrofit"..2001 3.2L included in that group... Hope, hope...

If you happen to need a another car to test you IMS retrofit kit in, I have a 99 Boxster w/ a 99 3.4L that I'd be willing to offer as a test subject...

I'm in Smyrna Ga so I could even drive the car up to you and leave it for a while.

Thanks for the offer.. We'd be glad to help with service and updates for your car, but we have two dedicated test cars that are here just for the purposes of providing run time and data for developments, as well as the test work we can do in my lab.

We try our best to develop components ourselves and do all the test work before anything leaves our care and control. I never use customers for guinea pigs as its not fair to them...

You're welcome, I was half kidding (half hopeful) as I really didn't expect you would use a customer car as a test mule... ....but I am definitely interested in this update once you get it ready for prime time.

Thanks,
