Yes, this is our last groupbuy for the RX-7 crowd, possibly the last that we'll ever run.

Heh. I guess I'll just pay regular price then, unless somebody magically gives me $800. Heh.

Does this group buy include the LT8s set up for the naturally aspirated cars? I could get in on these last few days if the N/A ECUs are ready.

We were told that they would be ready in time to ship. We haven't heard a "we've gotten one running" yet, so on the off chance that they don't ship (just in case!), we'll either refund your money, reconfigure your unit for free at a later date, or rush-ship your unit as soon as they become available.

$650 just for the ECU, then extra money for sensors and other stuff to make it work. It's costing me that much to rebuild the thing then I'm broke, guess I'll just have to stick with the Holley.

Actually, the LT8 comes configured to use stock sensors. If you've got an engine capable of running on the stock computer (i.e. all manifolds, sensors, plugs, etc), then the LT8 includes everything you need to get running - and you'll actually be able to turn without affecting your fuel delivery

Hey rxtasy3

Talk to Brandon about
the LT-4
and keep your dizzy


But you do know
you need a EFI fuel pump
bigger fuel lines
EFI F.P.R
a EFI TB and so and so on and so on

Converting a non-EFI car to EFI is a costly affair

you are no way close by your posts
ready for a EFI conversion

O i know exactly what all I will need to make the conversion, it's the money that's the problem.

Any should work. If they tie into the factory ECU, you'll have to do a bit of thinking, but there shouldn't be any major hurdles.

The LT8 hit the rebate quota! 27 lucky people will be getting a check in the mail for $50 (minus any outstanding balance, e.g. paypal fees). The LT12s looked like they might, since they had 7/10, but alas they didn't.

Thanks to all the people who took part; this GB was an even "huger" success than the last one. I'm really stoked about getting all these Microtechs out in the wild and showing the world what they can do!

You guys rock!

Woohoo, 50 bucks back, this microtech was really a bargain. I am excited as well about the Microtech in the states. I think as people hear and see them work, there will be a huge interest. I am keeping my fingers crossed that my Microtech will be in and running by Sevenstock in September.

Good to here the quota was meet Brandon. You mentioned rebates will be sent out. Great. But when are the badboys going to be sent out ie. LT8 and acessories?

If everything goes well (i.e. no customs delays, etc), they should be in your hands in early July.
