Still avoiding the question? Some people are trying to give your company business, in case you didn't notice.

Is it BC's responsibility to inform us of anything? I think not. It is nice to have a moderator that knows a busload about the Radix and even works there but I don't see BlownChevy written on the side of my supercharger.

Maybe he doesn't know, or he's not at liberty to say. It could be proprietary information as far as we're concerned. Supplier issues, planning, quality control are all valid things that can tie up a product release. We have things at my job that don't seem like much when you know what it is, but when someone asks, your just supposed to smile and knod your head. That could be the same scenario here.

Good things are worth waiting for.

Exactly. Did anyone expect an advance notice...you heard it here on pt.net first?

BC has said in earlier posts Early 2008. To me that means the first Quarter or hopefully before May. Sucks to wait that long. IMHO the TVS won't be out till June or later. I had called Brian hoping to be a beta tester but that didn't work out.

If you like to tinker go with the turbo, you'll never be done working on it...

Crap the NNBS headers aren't even out yet. You'd think those would be easier to R&D than the TVS

This is one problem with the internet. A lot of times you hear about products WAY before they are ready for release and it makes you want it that much worse. Trust me I have been part of that group and it sucks waiting.

I'm sure when BC has info he can share with the community he will. Until then lets all settle down. Go have a beer or something.
