They were pushed out to April sometime:rolleyes: Good news is I found 2 other cnc shops willing to do them. We'll hopefully have two backups in the future. You might try Mario. I know he has one that is pending right now. It it falls though you will be able to get it sooner.:amen:

Thanks for dropping the line. It actually sold a few hours ago.

Pleasure doing business with you Chris.

Chris, I think a lot of us are worried the price will jump once the manufacturer's name is released and you have an exclusive. I certainly wish I could afford a set for my buildup right now, but probably wont' be able to until the end of this season.

I don't think Chris is fond of the price gouge technique, sure he has intro prices that rise after a time but usually only 5%-10%. Very acceptable IMO

Jason,

Even when we have an exclusive we try to keep prices affordable. For example, we have an exclusive on Wiseco pistons, but, when we recently achieved Master Reseller level we rewarded the community by dropping our prices.

I have NO intention of raising the price once the rod manufacturer is revealed. The only way prices will go up is if TU costs increase. In the 10 years we have been doing turbo rebuilds we have only raised our price one time and that was only by $20. As long as the community continues to support TU we will continue to keep the prices affordable for everyone.:clap2: :partywoot:

One set Chris, just like we talked about. The second set was a reference/joke about my 'first' set you had last month but sold to someone else when I couldn't be at the meeting:lol:

Though I don't have my hands on my set, I have had them on Aaron's. High quality pieces. The weight savings and horsepower capabilities of these are definately worth it.

Chris this is very reassuring. In other things I've been interested in I've watched something gain popularity or get some kind of recommendation, and triple in price. I am glad this is not the case. Thanks!
