Is there an IPO in the future for you guys? Sounds like there would be enough demand in the major markets. ![EEK!](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif)
Perhaps add upscale repair/service facilities. Definitely better than rolling our rides into the stealership.

Wow!!! And to think that it all started from a guy who posted an innocent thread looking to give his friends a few inexpensive HPs.
In all seriousness, I give you all the credit in the world. I'm very happy to see this all coming together and I wish you the best of luck. Just remember the little guys (see above) when the VRUS name is uttered in the same breath as Brabus, Kleemann and Renntech.

Ok... As a suggestion from Rock, I decided to start a new thread to discuss this.
The idea is to create a 100% pure carbon fiber airbox with a similar design to the Renntech box that is sold for $3,800. Renntech claims that their box adds 15 - 20hp.

Thanks Isaac!! ![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
It's not that far from Houston is it? I am sure Sunil can take good care of you.
Once I get some cores started for the heads, I'll have them on the shelf.. I've got 2 sets of cores.. i just need to get them ported and then we'll be ready to go!![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
You are too kind! We are going to do our best to make sure that the foundations and beliefs that the company was built on stay intact and are carried forward as it expands and grows.
I still have that original PM you sent from Sept. 2006.. Remember the one I am talking about? It is something I go back and read every once in a while and was a good source of motivation...
I will never forget the people that helped get us to where we are.![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

Hey Rob!! Thanks buddy! We are going to try our best and just keep doing what we have been doing.. I guess we will see what happens to the "landscape" as we move forward.
When that C63 shows up, we'll have the goodies for you!!
If it ever comes to that, I'll make sure you guys can get in on it!

How could I ever forget my buddy Dave! Thanks for all the endless support. If IPO shares ever do see the light of day, I'll send some over via Fedex with your name on them!! ![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
I could never forget any of you, no matter what happens to VRP!

No.. I am going to have a set of stock heads ported and ready to go, so when someone wants to order Stage 2 or Stage 3 they will be on the shelf waiting.. customer just ships their heads, we re/re the valvetrain and ship them back fully assembled.
Saves 1 week of waiting for the porting to happen.

Mike.. If you are talking about the dynos for cams, THEY MAKE POWER. I guarantee it. I already posted dyno that RFlow did.. And Sunil did a dyno on BMS' car.
I dont know what is going on with Rocket's car, but I suspect its airflow related on the dyno. Either that, or the ECU file for Evotech just needs to be tweaked..
I received a copy of the dyno via fax but it is black and white and hard to read... Maybe Adam could scan and post a colour version.. The dyno looks ok other than being lean below 4,500RPM.
If you are unsure about the cams, dont worry about it.. I'll keep them as I need a set for another car. Your cams are on the way to California.. if you dont want me to ship them, please let me know because I can use them somewhere else.
My car is a work in progress.. I am finalizing 5.7L and complete engine build.

Just thought I would let everyone know after visiting Sunil's shop earlier this week what a great experience I had working with him. His shop, though still under construction is very very nice, I can't wait to see what it looks like finished up. He took great care of me during my visit and was very accomodating. He even let me watch him work and ask him stupid questions as he went along among other things.
If you're in the TX area and need some work done, Motorwerks is THE place to go. The drive was a bit long but well worth the customer service I received.
