Yea,

Actually, I am waiting to see what the consensus is on the best way to fix the short MAF sensor and how much of a performance gain the "ram" tray offers over the basic kit.

Time is running out though.

 

Mike,

If they make them in our size, I'll take one! I remember when a few of the air filter companies sold them with the filter, and you are right about cleaning this thing instead of cleaning [or replacing] that large weird filter!

I haven't gotten mine yet either, and I'm way out in SoCal...

Mike

 

Mike,

Sorry I missed that.Glad to hear they got back to you. Are U still sending in yours? how long do they need it for?
Installed the air-box today.

 

If they could cut that time down to under 2 weeks, I could send mine out as soon as Friday, I''ll even send it express. Just depends on when I couls squeeze into the dyno.

This is coming together nicely

 

You installed the box? Well? Nevermind, I found the other thread.

 

S, I sent Steve/OWRACING an e-mail about that and am awaiting his response. I got mine yesterday too! Man, you weren't kidding about the oil. One entire corner of the box is stained from it, right through to the outside. I won't be able to ship mine out until Saturday the earliest so if you send yours I'll help you out with the cost of express shipping to/from OWRACING.

 

S, got the reply from Steve/OWRACING. Please see below. Sent you a PM also.

Just let me know if you still wish to send them yours. If not, no prob, I'll send them mine.

Mike,
The two week time frame is tentative. This is the time frame that we are currently at for new products and custom orders in house. If I can get it out the door sooner I of course will do so. Unfortunately I can't promise you a date of when we can get it out the door. We run on a first in first out system. We are excellent at what we do here so I assure you we will build it as soon as we can.

Thank you,

Steve Giebel

 

Mike,

They are going to make them available "commercially", right? So the rest of us can buy them too, right?

Mike E

 

Got the PM, U have one in return.
Told ya'...those filters are too wet with oil!! I used K&N cleaner and washed it good, still stayed pink, but not drenched.
As for outerwears..all they need is one for a template, and Im sure they would stock it, cant see why not.


Check your filters for excessive oil...MAF+oil=

I hope they know this filter will require more a few one off's. I would bet that 90% that buy this kit, would spend the 20-30 bucks for a pre-filter. Cant see them charging much more than that for the outerwear.

Either way, Im game

 

All boxed up, ready to go. I'll be sending the filter in a few hours to Steve @ outerwears. I could use the down time

Thanks go to blackhat for setting this up Thanks Mike

 

SHIPPED

My local UPS wharehouse doesn't open until 4pm, so I sent it Express via the good ole' USPS.Even though its express, they wouldnt guarantee me next day air, Sat by noon I was told.
Give them the heads up Mike Box in care of Steve is on the way to Michigan.

 

S, Thanks for taking the baton on this one!

EDIT: Updated Steve on the shipping.

 

Yep. Once they design the master they will issue it a part # and then anyone can order it.

 

UPDATE: RETURN SHIP OF 05STG1's filter with PRE-FILTER:

Mike,
I did receive the filter. My design engineer tells me that it should be able to leave here by Tuesday the 20th.

Thanks,

Steve Giebe


Since they now have it I think it's ok to start calling. Anyone interested in a water resistant pre-filter to cover their WMS filter please call Steve at (800) 967-3450.

Thanks,
Mike

 

Cool . . so do we have a group purchase going on this?

 

Mike, you're one hard working guy.

 

Woo Hoo..Tues the 20th

Thanks for the update Mike, and setting this all up. Im glad to hear my filter will be back within a good time frame
Let me know if I need to send them a check, and if they ask...please tell them Blue for that one

 

Mikeelia and 05STG1 . . . .

Thank you both for all your work and personal sacrifices on the custom construction of the cold air condom !

I ordered mine today even though the company treated you the way they did . . . just couldn't help myself . . . sorry .

Maybe if they get enough business they'll reconsider the freebie ?

 

no worries

 

blackhat did all the work, I just mailed it in.


BH, this town has been flooded with campers since last week!! Busch trailers are rolling in today
