Vargas Stage 3 Twin Turbo Upgrade?!

What happen with this? I haven't not seen any real updates in a few months now? The GTX 2867r setup looked amazing...

I though 10 people bought up the 1 day intro priced kit?

Just because I am not constantly posting updates about doesn't mean it's MIA. It's in production, what am I supposed to do update everytime I get a small production update. The people who have bought the kit email me for updates and I let them know its coming. Nothing with us ever goes MIA. We are not HPF, when the kit is done it will begin shipping.

I thought about dropping by on my way in last Friday. Unfortunately I screwed around till 1am the night before trouble shooting my Aquamist. Pulled into Lathrop and hit the room just long enough to clean up for dinner. Ended up over by the Blackhawk Museum.

Next time I'm in town, I'll hit you up for a drink.

What happened to Dzenno's stage 3's?

I saw his mechanic installing a set of what looked like stage 2's on his engine just last week

I can vouch for Tony. As antsy as I am for these snails, I probably bug him more than I should, but he always responds quickly. No worries with the stage 3s, once they begin shipping you will be getting information overload, a calm before the storm.

I think he has stage 1 turbos on his car to tide him over until the stage 3 arrive.

But you can ask him that himself on the other forum. There's more interesting stuff going on there anyway.

D's got some sneaky little top secret testers getting put on his car right now at Ivos. Whoever was at the shop should have looked a little closer...

Tony I am dying to see the charts with the new manifolds, and the smaller range of turbos you're utilizing. 18psi @ sub-4000rpm and enough flow to make mid-500's on pump no meth... and I'm sold. Lets see it.
