UPDATE:


We have ran into a small delay with our vendor on the special drain valve (Which is only needed if your icing down at the track.

So here are the options:

1) We will ship your tanks on sch and ship you the valves which can be T'd into the line very easily after install.

2. We can hold your tank and ship when the valves get in as a whole. ETA End of Next week. 8/10

We have also Decided to give an option for the cabin filters. (Guys that purchased Filters)

Option 1: Our current Cabin filter utilizes the Stock plastic mounting box with our mesh and filter element. some of the plastic does need Trimmed on the OEM plastic bracket for the tank to fit perfect. If you decide to keep this option We will refund $40 of your $50 dollars back, and ship your tank with our mesh and Filter element.

Option 2: We have decided to have a custom Laser cut flange to take place of the OEM plastic filter mount, that will come coupled with our Mesh and Filter Element. They are being cut as we speak and should be done 8/10. If you want this option we will extend it to you at no charge (G/B members only) This option will let you go completely back to stock if needed without having to trim the plastic bracket and just Remove and Replace.

WE GREATLY appreciate all your thoughts, input and patience and its because of that you help us with new and innovative changes with some of our existing products, to better them before they hit the market. This G/B was offered because of you guys asking for it, so we want everything to be as best as we can get it for you guys.

Please PM us which option you would like before we start shipping This week

Ughh....neither option is great....What happens when there is another delay ??? Maybe it would be better if you had everything designed and ready and then started group buys ?

So does this mean they will be shipping [as ordered] around 8/17 ???

We added an option. We didn't Change anything

So here are the options:

1) We will ship your tanks on sch and ship you the valves when thy come in which can be T'd into the line very easily after install. (If the valve is not in on time)

2) You go with the optional cnc'd cabin filter flange that requires no trimming like the standard option, which can also be installed after the tank is installed so no delay on getting your item . (If you can go without a filter for a week or so you will get this instead at NO additional charge from what you paid in the beginning. Sounds like a good option to us

It was my understanding the filter was "bolt on" and would not require any modifications. As such I will stick with what I ordered - option 2 please....

Sure I will do a full review with before and after logs (and will make sure to document the size). I cannot take the wait as it has been hot here in socal (80+ degrees )....Usually it is a near perfect 75 degrees...

Pour 2 gallons into the gallon you used to fill the tank, now that would be a cool trick.
