TEC

[Jim Pearl]

Not telling us HOW it was done is just about useless - why tell us at all? 
A friend of mine is building a sponsored race car (ATI blowers among 
others) and when he contacted Electromotive he spoke to a guy and things 
sounded really good. Next time he called he got hold of another guy and the 
price tripled. Needless to say they lost out and he'll be running a DFI 
just like mine, too bad. I myself would've bought a TEC system and was 
already talking to a couple of people about installation etc. - then I 
found out what they wanted for their software - NOT! there's no sense in 
having the best system around if it costs too much for people to afford, 
they don't seem real interested in doing much volume (IMO)...

Also - I was told that their prices include no wiring. They'll make you a 
harness (reseller telling me this) but again it's $$. Be prepared to make 
your won - this was about 2 years ago. Sad thing is they're local and that 
was one of the big reasons I wanted to buy from them, oh well - maybe next 
time...

Ok, that does not do much good. Did you buy direct as dealer?? Did you
buy more than 1 to qualify?? What was price???Or did you buy from a
distributor???
