if there is a significant number of interest, for instance about 10 ppl, i could negotiate with tuners about a bundle package.
but it has to be a significant number with the willingness to put down a deposit.
i am thinking 10% NON-REFUNDABLE deposit to the tuners......non-refundable in the aspect that you will not get the cash back, but get the store credit.....
this is just a thought, nothing has been finalized in terms of negotiation....
non-refundable deposit shows the level of interest and willingness, thus it might be easier to negotiate for better terms/discounts.....
and, i will discuss the terms with prospective buyers before the negotiation with tuners.... so nothing to worry about..........
also, please follow instructions ppl............. level of interest, type of FI, and tuner preference......
in the end........about a month or two from now, i am hoping to get about 10 ppl in either TT or SC......... then i might be able to start negotiating.........
in business terms, i do not think tuners will be willing to give discounts to a group buy with only a couple of ppl - simply, there is not enough incentive on either end......
also, since tuners are finalizing their kits, i am assuming that it will take a couple of months to get the final dyno results, price, ect...............
likewise, although this might be an early start, this would be a plan for 3-6 months down the road.
i am sure once they release dyno results, more ppl will be interested.........
once again, if you are interested, lets form a "union" to get a better deal
also, for the tuners, with 10 ppl, we are talking about $100K+..........which is a lot of money..............
well, i am not in any hurry, so lets see who is interested.....
also, i think i will actually start negotiating or discussing terms with tuners:
1) if there is about 10 ppl with serious interest in either SC or TT
or
2) in a month or two, when there are final dyno results with listed prices
