There has to be someone willing to take the plunge for all us Californians!

How about a 2004 zhp with a 2003 build date? Where would I find the tune sticker?

I have a 2003 ZHP 6 Speed.
Where do you find the tune up sticker?

EDIT: OK, I found the emissions test group number: 3BMXV03.0UL2
I guess it doesn't match but can it still be used?

[icemanxlb]

I already match it and signed in with VF Engineering today :)

And let me tell you, MAJOR DISCOUNT INDEED

Thankyou to everyone who contacted us. As mentioned above icemanxlb has agree to let us use his car for the testing and our CARB lab testing begins on Dec 10th!

I bought the VF kit for my 330 in July/Aug 06. Was told the stage2 kit would be out in November...then April 07....then June/July 07.....then November 07...here we are in November and still "In development".

Sent about 4 or 5 e mails to them asking when the stage 2 kit is likely to be released and never had an answer.

I wish Id bought elsewhere now as other manufacturers kits are well into stage 2 and Im left with my thumb up my arse.

[icemanxlb]

Hmm VF is a company that rigorously develops and tests their products to make sure it is completely reliable so I bet they are just going through extensive tests before it comes out. Be patient. I been to their headquarters and know they are very much into their work.

It will likely be completed this winter. We are going through manifold R&D right now. The delay occured because our 645 and S54 kits pushed the E36/46 stg2 back. We answer all our email and phone calls. I am surprised you mention otherwise. Eitherway, pls accept our apologies if you did noy get a response to your email. You could try calling us or emailing me on nik@vf-engineering.com

Nik, what is the status with the E46 M3 Stage II S/C? Will it be released this year as you previously indicated, next year or later?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Based on the current pace of R&D, we expect Spring 08.

Bummer:cry:, but thanks for the head's up.

BUMP!
Sorry to bring this one back to life but if VF needs an MS45 ECU 330 for CARB testing, LET ME KNOW! I'd be more than willing to let you use mine.
