TurboXS Tuner Group Buy
Nino's just offered a deal for $605 shipped for a Turbo XS Tuner. We need a total of three buyers for the deal to go through, so far Ryan and I are in the GB. Anybody want to be the third buyer?
If we can get more buyers, I'll ask we can reduce the price a little more.
Thanks!

Great price,
but two reasons I didn't go this route. One, I paid $339 shipped. Two, I didn't know where I'd mount the unit (a little big). My WB fits where my clock was. But I mostly agree with Pat. Everyone who has EM needs a WB.

I agree that everyone with EM needs WB02 data to be safe AND successful. Some of you may want to check this out

This is about 99% the mostly likely route that PwrRex and I are going to be taking within the next month.
I'm by no means trying to demote the deal that this group buy would give. $605 seems to be a pretty darn good deal on the Tuna. For me, though, I just don't see spending THAT much more money, when the app in the above link is pretty much free (donation if you want), and the LM-1 is only $349 brand new. I can't justify it to myself to pay another $300 for the minimal features the tuna will have over the LM-1 setup.
Just my $.02

I would like to join in on this GB but I don't know when funds will be available... when is the end of this GB?
What comes with this? does this include everything (including GBA adapter?) more details

One awesome freature of the TUNA that I think everyone is glossing over (and I have barely had a chance to use) is the knock microphone. It's obviously designed more for the road tuner vice the dyno tuner because you or your passenger can monitor real knock first hand as opposed to trusting the factory knock sensor.

What you guys should really do is split the cost of one...It'd only be like $130 each.
A WBO2 isn't something you use everyday.
