Talking anyone interested in a group buy for FI (TT or SC)?

well, being a member of the forum and owner of a Z, it is a very enticing prospect to yearn for more power...........

but the problem is the price........... perhaps for many of us.....

to be honest, $35k for the car and $15K for a TT set, the sum is not bad for a monster capable of 500+RWHP...........otherwise it would cost $70K+ just by comparing the rwhp.........

the only unattractive aspect would be longevity, realiablity, and durability of the FI setup...... but i figure, gathering from what i have read from this forum thus far and positive feedbacks from the forum members, the durability is not an issue for a well tuned car...... as soon as it leaves the tuner's garage, it is up to the driver.......

just a simple fact: if you get greedy, it won't last long.......

perhaps my wishful thinking, but i figure a FI setup for my Z would last about 70-100K miles with a conservative tuning and conservative driving........

now, to get back on track with the cost factor..............

............nonetheless, at least for me, $15K is not something to risk on a whim in today's economy.... especially for a car...... wish there was some kind of financing for TT kit

to keep it short........ i want more power at the most cost-effective price....

i would like to see, i guess this would help the tuners as well, who is interested in FI:


1) level of interest:

A: 90-100%
B: 80-89%

followed by timeframe in months.....

2) type of FI

list SC vs TT vs FI (for those unsure)

3) the prospective tuner

AAM, GTM, etc... and TUNER if unsure


EX:

1) A-6months
2) FI
3) TUNER


hopefully, there are many ppl in A category with 1-3 months timeframe..... we might be able to get a good deal.....
