Talking Just placed my order!! WOOHOO!

okay, I'm excited, can I have it tomorrow?!?!?

Brandon, I did have one issue w/ the order form though, not sure that the price calculated correctly.

I'll PM you separately 'bout that.

Thats the main reason I want it I get somewhere between 13-17 MPG on my STOCK TII with replaced air filter, fuel filter, new spark plugs, wires, O2 Sensor, etc.

Gonna be nice not to have to fill up 2 times a week. Especially at these prices.

Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing. Didn't really keep track of my mileage before (didn't drive it enough), but I'm thinking eventually it will pay for itself!

Thats the predominant reason why I'm considering It too. My Crane Cam Ignition Box was purchased for the same reason. It's paid for Itsef over and over again.

I have had my LT8 installed in my car for about a month and a half, and it has already paid for itself in gas mileage! If I am just going to and from work, stay outta boost, I get excellent gas mileage. Since my car is pretty heavily modified, its gotta richen up quite a bit after about 4 LBS of boost

I fill up about once a week just cruising around town and dominating the street occasionaly

Damn, all this talk of the Microtechs gets me all hot and tingly J/K. I can't wait to get mine! Since My TII motor will be using the MT and installed in a light weight Datsun 510, I should reap even better gas milage...

It looks like we only need 1 more LT8 to meet the quota.
were going to have to start help selling this things.

Lets go to the lounge and say if we meet the quota, we get a free hooker

Well it looks like we met the quota w/ the LT8s!!! but there are also 3 John Elliots on the list. Hopefully that's not an error and didn't contribute to making that quota.

At any rate, it looks like we won't make the quota on the hand units unless we just have a huge rush here in the last few days -- BUT -- we need just a two more folks to pick up those dash units!!

Keep in mind that we can only count those who actually pay. I'm hoping that we'll get the awesome 100% payment rate that we got last time, but... it becomes imperative not to quantify one's poultry antecedently to their birthing.
