I possibly would be up for that....especially with the "through the nose" pricing on the JCW kit.

Considering that you are already saving 15% off the price of buying the intake, ecu and exhaust seperately, I don't think $1000, or $625 off would be feasible. I'd be happy to speak with George about this if there is serious interest. But don't expect too much off an already discounted package.

I'll just throw my 2c in. The performance guys that come up with this stuff need some return so that they can do more R& D. Then we benefit from the next round of improvements. If we try to cut too much out of the price, quality suffers, R & D suffers, time-to-market suffers. Worse, we end up with the boy-racer croud, seeking out the low-end.

Group discounts are fine but we gotta be reasonable. No ax to grind here, just concerned about future quality IMHO
