the good thing is, once the problem is fixed it will be very quickly ready for testing at full chat

Hope I dont become intrusive but, the problems are trying to find a tensioner that is acceptable for dealing with this kit. It's not a simple "just adapt the OEM tensioner" and hope it holds up. Its a process that takes time and actual R&D to get right.
If you take the short path here and skimp on one pice as critical as it is or isnt, it could drag the entire product right down the shit shoot. Get it wrong there can be reliability issues, parts can fail easily, a certain part can prove to be a weak spot... And the list continues, but if everything is done correctly it will be the product we know it will be.

Look at ShiteX for a second...
They cast their own mounts, and Jerry rigged a BMW E36 belt tensioner to make it work.
WRONG!
The POS hydraulic tensioner for the E36 was meant to keep just enough pressure on an accessory belt... Yup, alternator, AC pump, whatever else is belt driven... NOT a S/C, which has a much higher load, and needs higher tension. Not to mention that little $90 shock, is held together by ONE tiny little snap ring on the shaft of the shock. If you over compress it or cycle the function of the shock too fast, this lonely single cheap ass excuse for a retainer pops out of its groove, and the entire part splits in to two pieces. Can we say FAIL!

Im all for taking a little more R&D time to get things right. Better to miss a non existent deadline, than to be dead in the water when shit brakes.
