Patience my friend. Proper R&D takes time and testing. I will have some data this week along with approximate production schedule.

It is "Too much Power is Never Enough Syndrome" or TMPNES. I know I have it too, why do you think I do this for a living;-)

Thumbs up I agree

That's what happen to my boss who owns a 2002 Porshce TT. He said the car is too slow now that he mod it and now the car has 500hp...so far the car is just right to him. Any other doctor's appointment needed for the "Fast Car" Syndrome.
