I will say this, KnightRider... if you're planning on starting up a business selling a SC kit, you better get on it really quick. The market's already ripe, and as much as I'd like to think the 240sx will be a popular car forever, it just isn't.
Interestingly, there is very little information you can withhold at this point that would prevent someone with "more means" from beating you to the punch. I mean, you're talking about an affordable supercharger kit. If the market for one grows, you can bet bigger companies, like Jackson and Edelbrock, would be stupid not to use their manufacturing largesse to fill the demand. All you have going for you is the fact that you got started first, and unfortunately, that won't matter if someone else finishes first.
That said, I really don't believe you're losing anything by posting pics of your progress. I mean, it's up to you, but use this as an opportunity to call out the naysayers. I'm inclined to give you the benefit of the doubt, but a lot of people out there aren't. Writing them off with "Your opinion doesn't matter" means you're losing credibility and potential customers.
Also, let's keep the "No, you're the BSer" crap to a minimum. If anything, that's the kind of squabbling that'll get the thread locked.
