Three weeks ago I was ready to buy a bunch of upgrades. After paying off bills I had some money left over. I REALLY wanted the piggy. What stopped me was that the ends didn't justify the means. Price was a factor, but even though I was ready and willing to drop the loot for it what pushed me away was the the hard connection to the car and how it would effect the warrenty. If the harness was available 3 weeks ago, even if the price was more, I'm 95% possitive I would have bought it instead of the other things I got instead. So there is at least one piggy that you didn't sell and could have. I'm sure there are plenty of other people that don't post on evom that but have been to your site and didn't get it for the same reason. I understand where you guys are coming from you the business perspective, but I guess you have to look at the money made in the long run and not the money spent right now.

You gotta spend money to make money.

Not pissed off. A little exasperated maybe what with all the repetition...just would appreciate an answer - yes or no! And isn't THIS whole post asking exactly that?

That's what I thought I said *L*...did pm it that way to Rob too...maybe I've just been too "nice"...going for another

Thanks Otter, I was starting to wonder if anyone else got it. Good god, I must be getting old... Next thing you know ppl will think James Belushi got his start based on talent... Have you heard anything from RRM about the harness? Viciouz said he'd check monday and it's wed night here and nothing posted. I'm spending a big chunk of change Friday and if there's no harness... Well I'll have to reasses where to spend it. I can't wait around forever, I need to get the new parts in and still have time to tune everything. I wanted to have the harness for the emanage so I could do a bulk build and minimize dyno time. No harness= money being spent on different mods to pick up the ponies I'll lose tuning

. I will say I"m a little disapointed, I could have pieced together some kind of jumper by now. It wouldn't be pretty, I might even have screwed up my connectors pristine finish pulling the wires out, but I could have done it semi-proffesionally by now. I just can't beleive that even with the evo IX coming out with mivec that they're hesitant about this harness. I may be wrong but Mitsu will most likely use the same connectors as the RA does now. Why else would they have gone with it in the first place? Oh well, life goes on. Do you have any suggestions for picking up a few more ponies on a CAI, 75whp N2O, BFG Drag radial setup? I'm taking Illicit's advice and pumping up the rear tires on track day. Anything else come to mind?
Thanks for letting me ramble...
