Sanity has kicked in. Thanks guys I just was going crazy reading Theta's post and knowing he would be driving his beast soon. It wasn't helping that other shops could do the instal yesterday ( so they said) in the end I'm very happy that VR will be doing the instal by the end of this week.
Then I can switch from need boost to got boost. And show the world what the C7 can do.

Obviously the C7 is a stellar platform, and after peoples fears of the fuel system went away, and pricing for S/C systems are better then ever, it seems to have brought a LOT of buyers to the table. (Some that might not have been interested in years past) So this has been a BIG boom for S/C sales, this close to the launch of a new model platform.
ALSO........
WE ARE HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE OUR BACKLOG of systems ordered with the HORIZONTAL INTERCOOLERS IS OVER!
Again our apologizes to those that had to wait a little longer then expected for these systems, literally everything was done to speed that process up no matter the costs, to get items in customers hands.
Thanks again for everyones orders/comments/suggestions.

This "excitement" is the understatement of the year!

It's done, I tell you! 
I was just waiting to see the results of the header poll. I'll swap those over today, fill the fluids, and bam. 
The problem is that I keep adding more stuff (it's the sickness... it has me). New shifter tomorrow, intake manifold and TB on Friday, etc.
Also, OP, don't feel bad after reading my stuff. You'll see that it took 4 weeks, a lot of minor frustration and tweaking (not just on the kit, mind you), and everything else... Meanwhile, you'll drop it off at VR and they'll have you in and out (and driving it hard) in like 2 days.
That sounds like the better ending to me.

I'm patiently waiting for some of the supercharger manufacturing companies to take care of us Californians with a C.A.R.B E.O. approval.
There is a HUGE untapped market for C.A.R.B. legal horsepower for C7 Stingrays here in the land of stupid over regulated smog laws.

I have a little time to wait. I plan on ordering a 15. With production expected to start on 08/11, I am hopeful to get mine by the end of September/beginning of October, put around 1.000 break-in miles, and supercharge it (hopefully by the end of Winter). I hope that by that time A&A and ProCharger have already the CARB process completed. This also allows some time to work out any possible remaining small kinks/bugs out.

If it was nicer at any point up until now, I would have been a lot more motivated to work on this thing.
You could always bump up to the Z if they surprise us all and make it reasonably-priced.

Ok so we all are playing nice again. Thank goodness. Now that I have had a supercharged car for a while they are just so much more fun! I'm sure the OP will have the permagrin for a very long time. Shoot just wait til the Z06's hit the roads.

I know how you feel. Waiting sucks. I have been waiting for Borla to release their exhaust now since back in November David Borla came on here and stated some systems would be available in December. When you call for an update it's been "2 more weeks". I'd rather they would have just said back then "not for a while, so Erie 1st quarter" as to not keep getting your hopes up.
I was under the impression that GM engineered the exhaust to flow equal to or better than the aftermarket offerings. In track mode, mine sounds plenty loud/mean...
