seen the retail prices on some of the Precision stuff? I see plenty of it on the street.


They probably have figured the cost of fabbing up a wastegate setup - and factored that in accordingly.


I for one, hope to see them do well. I'm sure the price will end up being whatever the market bears. It's easier to go down than up!

DG has a point - some of the DVD in the Dash guys will probably have a realtime graph showing their turbo speed in neon colors. It'd be cool, if you're into that sort of thing. Datalogging the speed is an interesting concept (when did it really spool, where is it on the map at certain times).

They have hit the market now, and it looks like they're not as expensive as I thought.

I must have heard them quote one of the largest ones; it seems they don't quite have the pricing on those.

Those are pretty good deals when you think of all the fab work and extra costs they eliminate. Can't wait to get my fingers in one as soon as possible!

Bah!!!

I think I'll wait for awhile, they've got to get cheaper once they're not the newest thing.
