you'd be surprised how hard it is to find someone with an actual video camera, not a digital camera that can do video. Its finally warming up here in the midwest so I will get a clip soon, also i just ordered a new bov cause the stock one was sticking and leaking boost all over the place!

sorry for the late update guys, finals were really kicking my butt last week. I should have the test shaft in a couple of days and after i test it they will begin construction of the shafts. Unfortunately new shop= new test shaft to make sure everything is ok. The last shop tweaked the drawing a little, but they didn't give me that so after we make sure this one fits no problem all is a go.

They had a few done at a shop. But gompka decided to change shops because they got too curious and wanted to start charging a lot more.

So he switched to a new shop, and they were waiting on materials or something. Not sure if price will remain the same.

Gompka has one installed, and its working perfectly.

Thats all I know ^^

Went to the shop and tested out the shaft. All looks to be ok. Test fitted the bearings and hopefully production will start soon. I hope you guys aren't too p'ed off about all this b/s but if I could make these myself i would. Custom stuff is a p.i.t.a and so is moving to a new shop and starting from scratch. I am getting 10 of these and I don't think i'm dealing with this anymore as I don't have the patience. Thanks to everyone for patiently waiting!

Post the AutoCAD/ Solidworks / ProE whatever drawings on photobucket or whatever. That way, other folks can get these things made locally if they want.

So the material is Stainless Steel 3440?
Finish is polished or no? Is it heat treated? passivated? electropolished ?
