I'd put myself on the GB list for my 2000! Looking at some rotrex action, does that make a difference in the build? Thanks!

Let's prove him wrong and get the GB going. Like yesterday. I would rather support you then AEM. I am about to pull the plug, but am willing to hold out for a GB to get going.

Have a great day,

I'd second this. I'm looking at a 3rd or 4th hand used MS2 right now, I'd rather get a new, purpose built known quantity unit, built by someone who knows what they are doing and who can answer my questions. I have the skills to build, but not the experience. I'd rather pay someone for PNP than chase my own tail with homebrew. Just my

I would be more than happy to start a new GB right here, right now. The problem is that I was looking to add more features to these new units, like improved knock detection. That requires R&D, and that takes time.

If you guys want them right here, right now, as they are, I obviously don't have a problem in building them.

I'll be happy to do some testing of the new units if you need some testing on an 01+ unit.

Have a great day,
Jared

I didn't say that they are ready but not tested. I said that they are NOT ready yet. So its either a group buy now (with only slightly better units than the previous group buy, mainly a much improved A/C function) or quite later with improved features.

Your call guys. I need at least 5 to offer a decent price.

Since I no longer have a/c is there a difference in the units? If not how much would it be?

Have a great day,
Jared

Excluding the A/C, very minor differences.

All 99-05 units are $740. IAT sensors are extra at $23 and only needed if you are F/I. Shipping is included in the price.

Well, what's the timeline?

Humm... Better knock detection is always a good thing. I'm still 2-6 months out from my boost project, funds depending. I wanted to get the ECU in and learn some tuning while I'm still n/a so I can get used to the MS, and then swap maps once I'm ready for boost. How would the price compare to the previous GB?

Depending if there is others for a fast GB then I am in.

Prices are obviously up since the previous GB. The prices of the first GB were more like "try us and get the word out".

I can probably build the knock detection circuit as an external module and you can add it later on. Obviously an extra addon.

Let's try to get 5 units within a week. Say until April the 14th.

Hah, perfect! I get paid end of next week. We want to do this here or start a new thread? Details here or PM? Better price point for the mini-GB?

Thanks man!

These units are NOT built, I don't keep stock of built units. The 14th is the final date for declaring interest. On the 14th I'll need full payments from everyone to order the parts and have them shipped to me.

Hi,
I have some questions. Do you have any emissions that you have to deal with in Athens?
The 2000 that I have will have to eventually be brought in for OBDII scanning. Is there something that can be plugged in or piggy-backed to your MS design that can solve this problem?
Thanks,
Jeff B.

Tailpipe sniffer only over here. No OBD-II scans. Frankly, it takes 10 minutes to remove this ECU and put the stock back in. Its 100% plug and play.
