I wish I was updating you with good news, but unfortunately the welder we used was very careless when welding the tanks. Unlike powder coating, anodizing will not hide any surface imperfections. Not only did the welder scratch the surface, but also the welds are not in accordance with the...

Welder sent the tanks straight to anodizing to avoid double shipping. I'm waiting to hear back on the ship date. I will update you guys as soon as I find out.
Lean Manufacturing is a wonderful thing. We are in the aftermarket Mustang scene to produce high quality parts at reasonable pricing, not to get rich off our comrades. The benefit of putting the time in on the front end is that you do it once and do it right. If I want to run a new batch of...
Now that I'm a vendor I can upload some pictures that I've been waiting to share and give you a full update shortly. The tanks are currently being welded. They will be done and on to anodizing ASAP!

I wanted to let you guys know that the sheet metal parts are complete and inspected. Everything looks good and once the hose fittings/cap cylinder arrive the tank will be welded together! :cheers:

Sorry, I decided to not send out the last few weekly updates as there is nothing to update. As was said in the last update the machining process will be completed at the end of March. Once the machining is complete the parts will be sent to the welder and then to plating. Expected ship date...
Just to let you guys know the 2015 JLT Ecoboost CAI is in stock and ready to ship on amazon or from forzaaerospace.com! :cheers:

I can't wait either, but we're getting closer!! :clap2:
I added you to the list. We lost a couple of guys who decided they didn't want to wait until April. Unfortunate, but I think we can still get to 20!
