All great news. I say that you guys get a new thread started with updates on the kit production. This thread has gone on so long that you no longer need any opinions on "what would you like to see in a snorkel design."
Maybe its just me but I think a new thread might get rid of a bit of the negative feedback and get people excited again.
I know I will be getting it wether it comes out next week or next year.
And sorry for all of you who are subscribed to this and have another e-mail in your inbox.

OK... first because this site was sold some time back it took a little more work to get our renewal finalized with the new owners... We were unable to log in until that was completed... We are here and supporting this forum so thanks to those who were concerned.
Second I am the engineer and if you think I should be fired than please step up and give me a detailed description as to how you would have had this to market sooner.... Easier to talk about it than really getting it done. I will be the first to tell you I would have wanted to market sooner but I had to overcome some interesting hurtles. Remember this is a brand new approach unlike any other system so it had to be designed, tested and confirmed before it could ever even start to be manufactured. I have tried to keep everyone updated to explain the reasons and for those that have followed along I hope a little insight was given in the development of a new product.
As for when this thread started please rememeber it was for input from you guys on what you would want... It was all on paper with nothing even built to see if it would even work.
Good news... We just received the new low intake samples from the new tooling... Looks good and will be giving approvals on Monday for production to start. We are on the home stretch and now just have to manage scheduling, manufacturing, packaging the shipping. All these items also take a little time but I will do my best to expedite it.

As noted earlier I will be bringing this thread to a close very soon.... By the end of next week I will start a new thread showing installation details and items of interest regarding the soon to be released 2007-2011 JK modular snorkel system. To all those that have contributed and helped, all I can say is thanks... Now I just have really big expectations to live up to...

Glad your back RR! Thought it was really strange. Anyway, I have funds set aside for your snorkel. I still think it is the best design and will be perfect for me. Can't wait, but will for the right product. Keep up the hard work
