There was a special intro price on this turbo and I think they all sold out. I just noticed i was bill for mine so im assuming its being shipped now.

Only a handful haven't left, and we are working on getting them to get those out the door ASAP. I will be making sure we stock these and the TC76's as soon as they ever can catch up. We have tried to stock them, but people order them faster then they usually can build them...lol

Thanks for getting these out to us.

I decided to put this one on my 01 camaro in place of the tc76 so I can go drive it this weekend. It's all put together, I might even fire it up tomorrow.

It looks identical to me except the red lettering on the compressor. I am curious to see if my tune needs to be tweaked or not.
