I get that things usually take longer than expected, but to tell everyone they've been running it on their shop car for a while now and not be able to provide ANY details really is lame

I'm sure that success of a project of this magnitude is not an overnight sensation.

People need to step back and let it roll. I'm sure that Gintani has better things to do than post pretty pictures on forums.

Negative/provocative comments on the forum dissuade people from sharing new product developments and innovation with the community. I know I've been turned off in this way before.

It would be like me posting a teaser of the Bluetooth PCB for flashing BMW's via mobile devices, and everyone complaining about it not coming to fruition within a certain timeframe.

Research and development takes a lot of time and money. Rome wasn't built in a day, and time tells all tales. Best thing to do is be patient and watch it materialize if it was meant to be.

We are not sure were you are getting your information from, but you are 100% incorrect. This turbo kit started at Gintani and will finish at Gintani. As far as Fast Intentions' involvement in this kit, goes as far as getting a few pieces of tubing that we had ran out of. Please keep in mind that Fast intentions is a business partner of ours and very good friends.

As far as putting up more pictures and videos, we will post them when we have the car up and running on the dyno and streets again. We are not concentrating on taking pictures right now our focus is to get the car up and running

We are approaching our own personal deadline to get this car back up and running on the dyno, which is end of next week. Alex will be getting married and will be gone for a little bit, he has no choice but to get it done or we will all him here at Gintani LOL...

Its hard enough running a business. Give it some time. Some of you dont even have an M3 so why get so worked up?

I don't agree with Benvo's comments. People hate vaporware. If you're not ready to provide more detail or release a product, don't publicize it. Apple, Google, Amazon, etc don't announce new devices until they are ready to ship within a week or two. That delay is usually because of building up the supply chain.

There are many different ways to advertise products and build suspension. Therefore it is said to be "to each their own." Mike is referring to the crude comments that people post regarding a supporting vendor "just because." If you review most of the build threads for vendor products, you will notice they announce their build / progress well before they are ready to release the product. Some choose to release pictures as they go, some don't. You have your right to your opinion, as I do mine...just trying to provide a different view.

Very interested in being involved with the development of this kit at some point. I'm about to pick up an e92 M3 in the next couple of months, specifically for modifying heavily. Please PM me with details if possible.

Thanks,

Chris
