For current Evolution owners, I will be able offer a "trade-in" on your current units in order to get the Gryphon upgrade. This eliminates the problems for Edge regarding the compliance and allows me to provide the tuning for the units.

Yes, as you have guessed, our units are basically Evolutions that are rebranded as the Gryphon. They are physically identical to the Evolution including the pod. We will be offering some cool options down the road such as different case colors (black cases and clear, see-thru cases are already in the works) and a different LCD display with a negative display image (background is black, text is clear/colored) is also being looked at.

If you have any questions regarding our trade-in policy, please contact us directly.
Good deal

Working on the website as fast as I can. Got a stack of orders on my desk that I can barely see over! LOL I was hoping to get everything up Monday but being out of town over the weekend screwed up my schedule. Ah well... what else is now. I'll give you guys a shout when the website is updated.

Take care.

Perhaps having a wait time is actually MORE of a selling point. People don't wait for crap. They wait for something that WORKS so they can get their $$$$ worth. As expensive as tuners are, having quality, reputable work means not even HAVING to advertise. Word of mouth (such as forums) will bring in more than you can handle. Its awesome that Bill will be able to bring in MORE revenue, as the he sorta has the Edge market cornered. Perhaps this will open you up to offering more tuning packages Bill? Eh, eh? Perhaps packaging cold air, exhaust, etc.... Eh, eh?

All of that in time. It's always difficult at first when you have a startup business and capital is in short supply. I have considered investors and at some point may take that step, but don't think I am quite to that point yet.

As for the advertising, it doesn't matter how good your product or service is, you still have to advertise. Don't think for a minute that Troyer, Justin, or any other vendor on here including myself would be as successful without paying for advertising on this forum, or any other for that matter. I know I spend a large amount of money every month sponsoring forums, and haven't even begun to look at print yet. Granted, word of mouth is a powerful tool, but you still need to back that up with good advertising.

Anyway, just some random thoughts.
