I believe one of the major mag's just did a write up about them. Hot Rod, Carcraft maybe? I believe the use a modular bellhousing so it should work with just about anything.

I wonder what kind of price it will come with? I'm betting around 6-7 big ones!

It was HOT ROD that did the write up.. called it the "next big thing"...

All I have to say is, "PLEASE SIR, CAN I HAVE ONE? PLEASE SIR???""

Looks really impressive, i can only imagine the types of inputs though it needs to control this thing. Probably more than just a kick down or TV cable.

Ya my guess is this thing is gonna need a computer to go along with it. Probably the easiest application would be for people that are doing LSX conversion and therefore the computer is already there.
