I will contact each of the participants for confirmation and give out our company paypal address after closing date @ 11/30.
Participants will get immediate USPS confirmation # once I got the payment.

Sincerely
Panson

Guys,

Emergency Announcement

We've found some copycat of our product w/ similar package but use cheap parts. Therefore, we are currently working on redesigning our package to differentiate us from them. The controller is exactly the same.
If you are not comfortable with this, and would like to back off of the list.
Please let me know.

I am really sorry about this.
Panson

How does that add up? Is it the same controller or isn't it? It doesn't exactly look like *you* designed the packaging, anyway. This is obviously an imported item with imported packaging. Do you have a time estimate for these things to ship? Couldn't you ship them in the old packaging for the group buy? I guarantee nobody here gives a shit what package it comes in.

Does that mean that there is a cheaper version of your controller that does the same thing? Sign me up for that one then.

Honestly, the markup on this device is huge, why should it be sold with such a large markup if there are duplicate products that do the same thing for cheaper? Isn't this called Free-Market Capitalism?

You should do an analysis of the "impostor" product and show us all the reasons why we shouldn't buy it. Prove to us that your more expensive version really is better quality...

We've found it using similar package and product because we got calls for warranty replacement, and then figured out it's not out from us!!!.

The ship out date won't be affected if everyone is comfortable w/ new package. I will get the picture tomorrow. The control module itself is exactly the same.

Sorry for all the mess.

more than likely this and similar units are all made in Taiwan with a Japanese packaging, but from what I experience, these and similar products like the Blitz and Buddy Clubs increase the throttle response and fun factors to the car and you can't beat that for around $130. So please add me to the GB lists for a GE8 (not sure which harness)

Stop complaining about the price, it's already cheap

there's no justifiable way to set the price on these and that's the reason why people buy name brand stuff vs this. 10 - 20 bucks difference between this and the knock offs won't kill you.

IMO, just like to share, not hating

More GE8 freaks need to sign up on this. If you're not boosted, the biggest difference you can make with driving will be from a throttle controller like Blitz or (as far as I can tell) this one. Speaking as someone who ended up buying the Blitz TC twice and now missing it again.

Besides the quality parts we use, the 1 year warranty we honor is the reason why you pay a little more for our products. So please keep your original receipt and the invoice in the future for our 1 year free product replacement warranty!!!

how much are the additional harnesses if we decide to switch over to another car? I also have a 07 Lexus GS350 and would like to get a harness for that, Please advice. Thank you.

The harness is $25 shipped. If you would like to add on additional harness in this group buy, just add $20 to the group buy price.
