Correct me if I am wrong please but I would think it would be better to have it dyno tuned to reach the kits max capabilities.

Depending on who you talk to and how you use your car. For most just doing a data recording while putting your car through a good runin will get a lot out of the kit.
A dyno really just runs up to wot. Not necessarily how most would drive their car.
Either way is better than a canned tune. Arno is able to get your recorded data and adjust the IPF tune.

It won't take long to install, but I would take the time and double check the work.
When extending the MAF wires did you just use the connections provided or did you solder them together? Are the connectors provided sufficient enough?

Also anyone know about when the kits will ship now?

I believe the new IPF kit comes with a plug and play extension for the MAF. I soldered mine and used marine shrink tubing. Crimping is ok but you need to be careful.

Hey Guys, the first kit shipped on friday, we should have a few more going out mid week and more by weeks end. My appologies again for all the delays, we should not have these problems in the future. Kits will be shipping out in the order they were received.

Thanks!

To have the IPF warranty, your Car has to be almost new, with not much miles on it.

I won't know this for sure until my kit arrives, but I think I remember seeing a thread on here mentioning they had a plug and play for the LLT, but still didn't have one for the LFX yet. I could be wrong, we shall see. If not, then looks like I will be soldering mine.

Thanks, post results if you can, Mine should arrive end of day monday according to UPS, unfortunately since I'm doing the installation with myself and a buddy for a second set of hands, I have eleven long days(only six, if I attempt install next sunday) of work ahead of me before I can even touch my camaro, so it will be sitting in box taunting me from across the room.
