    Just in from Jeff....Looking good.....

    We are basically doing the "Finishings" now -- Polishing / Coating / Etc. while the tuners are working on getting things sorted on that end. I have other guys finishing up Jigs so the kit is 100% able to be reproduced.

    The procedure is to make a kit on the car (Easy part), then make all the Jigs to reproduce the kit (Hard part), THEN make a kit 100% off the Jigs to final install back on the Prototype car to confirm fitment. We have more than half the kit fully Jig'd at this point so we are looking good on that side of things as well.

    As far as the Proto car itself is concerned, it is down to primping and tuning

                        OK sorry for the slow updates, but IPS has been busy......

                        Carlyle’s ‘Atomic Fusion’ IRS ‘Vette Makes History In Atlanta - LSXTV.com



                        They have been busy! First and only 7 Second IRS Vette in the world......

                        Under record-setting conditions during qualifying at the Atlanta Dragway, Mark and his incredible street-driven Corvette blasted to 7.89 elapsed time at 180 miles per hour on Saturday to become the first and only seven second IRS Corvette in the world. The incrementals were 1.357, 3.456, 5.170 at 144.40, 6.647, and 7.897 at 180.84. A well-deserved congratulations goes out to Mark and his truly sinister Corvette for accomplishing the feat.

                              Updates from Jeff at IPS


                              We had half the shop down in Atlanta with the Z06 over the weekend (Which went rather well) and the other half flew out to Russia to go mod / tune 12+ Mustangs so it has been a VERY busy / stressful couple of weeks.

                              Back on topic:

                              I will post some "Done" pics as soon as I have the pricing finalized. We are working a new angle on the tuning side of things and that is all the car is waiting on to hit the dyno. Once I have more info I will post it up here

                              Once you get it installed and work out whatever little bugs that may or may not come up with the install you should not have to touch anything again.

There are too many variable in location and setups for me to feel comfortable with a canned tune. The alternative is to pay for expensive dyno time to dial it in. In my view, that is not a cost effective alternative!

                              No hand-held (Unless you wanted to purchase one with our kit) for the prototype car. We are tuning it in-house instead of trading emails and having someone tune it "Remotely".

                                Sounds like they paid the big-bucks for the real-time tuning setup?
