man I wish it were 6 months ago. We are working out the bugs on the module that fools the ECU now. I have sold a few kits pre-launch at a discount, with the knowledge that the module comes later.

outstanding dave! truly!

i'm about to do *another* re-bleed as i'm beginning to have some slight lag in my drivers side deployment. if it doesn't work as it should ( third rebleed on two cars lol ), i will be contacting you about your setup. i just need it ( or rather would hope! ) it will work as oem as you say.

if it works as you say, to my mind, it is an engineering marvel. you are to be commended lol

congrats!

I'm excited to see pricing on this when it's released. That seems like a great alternative to the OEM system.

High Speed Testing - faster lap times with 4" eRam, cleaner air and associated down-force - Check.

Whew...been busy. Have my first kit going into a 997 turbo. Hint, they changed a few things. But what has not evolved since the first 901 rolled out of the factory in Zuffenhausen?

I have been following this thread and the suspense is killing me. Can't wait to see the details on the final product.

I have been watching this as well, I don't post here a lot (I don't post on 6speed much either, but more . . .), but I have high interest-- Thanks for the innovation! KH

thanks for the kind wishes Mark, JJT and KHiroshima. I am so anxious to get this thing launched. I'll tell you all that the "electronic spoiler warning fooling device" was the absolute hardest part of this whole thing. I don't need the troublesome external limit switches as my system has them built in on both sides! Stay tuned...

the kit should work with any aftermarket wing that still uses the hydraulic rams.
