    OK well I count 17 people so far.

    I am awaiting a reply from my detailed email and conversation with Janspeed.

    If we get 20 its certainly a decent sized order, and I am hoping that we will get a really good price, at LEAST a fair bit cheaper than the X-Power price, since they were tacking on their margin anyway...

    Watch this space... I will update as soon as I hear back.

    Just to clarify T16, this is a list of 17 people who have expressed an interest it is not an order. Most are waiting to see what the price is and how this compares to the new solution being proposed by Zero exhausts.

    Not trying to teach you how to suck eggs but need to be 100% clear on this when talking to Janspeed, I am sure Tim will update on the latest status of the Zero discussions shortly

    Obviously...., im not stupid!

    You know what I mean. We need numbers first, which I stated as 20 pairs of exhausts, so lets see what deal they can do us based on that qty.

    As long as we get definite pricing, we can turn it into a proper group buy should we wish to proceed.

    More exhausts = cheaper price for everyone, hence the need to establish what sort of interest this may generate.

    Intrested and as the others depending on price. I'd like a nice set, and keep my tubes in the current set (we're moving house soon and may want to be stealth for a while lol!)

    That's one of the JanSpeed products I own, and if that was possible T16 it would be great ?

    I don't think the implication was that you are stupid Ross just clarifying the details. It's not a small amount of money all said and done.

    Be interesting to see how this develops, hopefully get Kevin to pull his finger out.

    I wonder if they would do a straight through exhaust, to save having to sleeve them??

    I would be tempted to get prices for quantities of 5, 10 and 20 myself.

    No implication of stupidity intended

    I've had to deal with the aftermath of purchase orders not meeting forecast volumes for special manufacture products before and the individual doing the forecasting to the manufacturer was held financially responsible.

    I'll say no more and just keep your list updated for you
