That sucks... I doubt we'll track down two more people to get in on the built kit, but maybe...

Too bad they wouldn't offer a special "code" to those of us who were interested and do the transactions individually.

When he says kit he means the $179 unassembled kit. He want to build his own as do I. He just talked to autotune and got them to offer the discount on assembled modded boards as well.

woah calm down killer... the deal is, get 2 more ppl and i will do the group buy as planned... i was debating weather to get the fully built unit, or the kit, and decided on the kit because its cheeper. The kit is the MS unbuilt, i will just do the mods myself.

If you get 2 more people, and dont want to pay the pay-pal fee, feel free to send me a money order.

I've thought about building it myself too, but I figured the extra money would be worth the "reliability" factor of having "a pro" build it.

at least assembled...the mods themselves aren't hard I've heard, and they will include the things we need for free...I think.

That sucks. I was looking forward to actually getting a piece of the turbo setup together. I'll order it later on. $15 isn't enough to make it worthwhile.

No it's still going strong. Some of the people decided to buy the DIY kits on their own is all. The fully assembled kits are still a good deal.

just got mine ordered straight from diyautotune:
1 x MegaSquirt-I Programmable EFI System PCB3.0 - UnAssembled Kit (MS130-K)
1 x Lead Bending Tool (T-LeadBend)
1 x PCBv3 and v2.2 -- Pullup Resistors 'ModKit' (mk-pullup)
1 x PCBv3 -- PWM IAC Valve Control (TIP120) 'Mod-Kit' (mk-PWMIAC)
this was $203

I'll be buying the harness later as well as the sensors.
