Shipping next month? To who? We don't know if it works yet... I think in the end it all comes down to tuning. The piece parts to get forced induction is fairly easy to design and readily available.
The tuning seems to be the big, humongous issue.

Maybe they aren't aware of the history where there is a number of burn out post of over promise. I will say the ONLY rep has been on is not an official rep. He was just an employee believing. Without official sponsership and real life numbers I have flashbacks of Adtkins.

sigh - i was so excited for this one. It appears at this point the LLT is just going to fade away. Guess GM was right to quickly drop it from the camaro offering. anybody know a good used IBM or Synergy SS for sale under 26k? I passed on 2 of them waiting for this kit......

It's only been a few days since the video, their bussiness plan does not revolve solely around this forum, I'm pretty sure they have good reason to trickle info out. Even though we have been duped by others, I think this one will come through.

From IPF youtube video
"Our friends at Firebird were nice enough to let us have access to the track, but pulling out light trees and timing staff wasn't an option. And we broke our VBox the night before. We are planning to get the car to the track for 1/4 mile very shortly, so stay tuned." |

As of this point in time, the future for the LLT is looking brighter than it ever has (as far as modding is concerned). I'm sorry you are now writing this one off when we don't even have the data yet. IPF has moved rather quickly on the project compared to most other FI projects out there in the past in my opinion. If you want more power now, go get yourself an RX turbo, and STS turbo, or if you just want a supercharger, give this another few weeks or a month for hard data, or just make the jump to an SS.

It's no surprise that companies have started these projects and scrapped them with so many naysayers, smart asses, and negative nancies.
This company owes you nothing. They did r+d on this kit, featured it at SEMA, are selling supplimental powertrain warranty with it, started viral advertising via youtube and you people want 1/4 mile times and track slips?! Give me a fussin' break. Why don't you all just keep your negativity bottled up for now as this is, thus far, the ONLY prayer any californians have at getting a legit supercharger kit. Thank you IPF for your research and development of this kit and showing some love to the oft forgotten V6 stepchildren. Keep plugging away and I hope to own your kit pending release and *cross fingers* CARB approval. Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk

Heard the same argument about the STS kit... give them some time... hell, it's been how long and seems no one has been able to just install it and go without some fairly serious issue along the way... And why the HELL wouldn't potential customers WANT 1/4 mile data! SH*T, the the AAC STS car ran way SLOWER than STOCK!!! So you are really going to spend $6K (at least) and not know if your car will be faster than a simply modded NA V6 Camaro?

Reason... yeah, they have less than stellar results from the track... at least that would be my guess... Heck I run a new PB at the track and I'm calling people, I'm texting people, I'm posting left and right... And i'm not even try to sell anything... LOL
