You know, had you just not posted about it, and not kept making promises and not keeping them, I probably would have gotten one of your CAI's. But since this has been an entire debacle, and what, 6 months with nothing on the market, I will make it a point to buy either the Roto-fab, or k&n intake. I don't enjoy being strung along and lead on, and I will make my displeasure evident by not doing business with your company, and I do sincerely hope a lot of other people feel the same way. You have handled this terribly.

They have been dragging their feet.. That's y I went with Rotofab. No offense to CAI but I don't think it takes that long to design/produce an intake especially when that is your line of business..

I got bored of waiting and ordered the Roto-fab.
Had the CAI on my SS and it was great, but for one reason or another they have decided the ZL1 does not have a big enough market to make development (or at least fast development) a priority. This is where Roto-fab is winning many new customers, because they have commited to ZL1 specific development and already have many products out |

Everyone has the right to purchase what they want, and I understand that the wait has been longer than originally anticipated. Unfortuantely unexpected delays, design changes, suppliers, testing, and other manufacturing and development tasks that must be completed for this company to operate slowed things down more than we would have liked for our ZL1 development. We understand that other companied have a CAI for this product, and we are not in a race with them, we are much more interested and concerned in the quality and performance of our own product and making sure we feel it is perfect before it is released.
Many of the other CAI manufacturers do not get involved on forums like these and post updates when they are in development, all you hear is when the product is available. Since many of you feel that we are "stringing you along" or "dragging our feet", in the future we will just be more cautious regarding allowing you the consumer to be in the loop on what we are doing. That way you know when the product is available for purchase, and do not feel "strung along" if we are taking longer than you feel we should be. For the ones who want to stay informed on development you can follow us on Favebook and we will keep you informed. For those of you still interested, the CAI is at the 3rd party tester waiting to be tested. We spoke with them 2 days ago and they are getting to our CAI as quick as possible but are very busy. As soon as we have more info we will update those of you who wish to be updated. Thanks! :thumbsup: |
I'll keep waiting regardless, but why not send a prototype to a shop who could get to testing immediately?
|
We don't let just anyone test our products, we want to know that it is being tested properly and also that it is a company with a solid reputation that people can trust. Like I mentioned before, this is not about meeting a time limit to us, it is about a quality product and accurate testing.
|
Your competitors also have the same desires, quality and performance. They just actually have something on the market. It was what, more than 2 weeks ago that we would also have some numbers and results in 2-3 days. Like the guy said, making these is your business, you aren't taking this long because you are fine tuning every portion of the product, you're taking this long because you know the market isnt going to be that big for it, and your competitors have beat you to market and are taking more business away, and a good deal of incompetence on your end on this product. This is my last reply about this, I'm ordering a ROTO-FAB today.

Look, the point is its taken a VERY long time. You keeping us informed gave us/some a reason to wait.. Some still will wait others will not.. I don't know what is involved in producing a new product but I do know how to spend money.. I've never purchased a
CAI inc product so I have no idea how your product compares with your competitors or any due loyalty, I was a "new" customer.. This is not a diss to you or your company as I'm sure by the positive comments on this site you will develop a great product. Good luck :thumbsup: |
