I'm in on it, today was the 1st day & I'm # 5 & they need 10 for the deal, they shouldn't have a problem getting to the minimum.
Seems like a good price, they're not posting prices only get them by PMing the guy in the group promoting the group buy.
Price depends on what you need, I bought the module & harness to adapt it to the MSD harness since I already have the MSD. they sell a full harness if you don't have the MSD.

The shop selling them isn't a vendor here so he doesn't want to advertise it here.

So you need the MSD also ?
Does it do only carb or EFI....or either ?
Do they have a stand alone system "like" the MSD ?

I'm confused

Carb only, don't need an MSD box but if you have a MSD harness already you can use it with an adapter.
I have the MSD harness so I got the adapter, was less than half the price of a complete harness & I still have the option to use the MSD.
My car is a track only car so I figure it's smart to be able to run both, if one has a problem @ the track I can swap them.
One thing that's cool is the box internally stores 10 program & has a selector switch so you can change them without a computer which might help @ the track.

The daytona box has many extra features over the MSD. It works with both 24 and 58 tooth cranks. Has individual cylinder timing. Connects via USB. You can load more than one custom tune into the box and change with the rotary switch on front of box. Has burnout limiter, Two step, and timing retard outputs. Testing has shown timing at higher rpms to be more stable than msd box.







Can change tune or rev limiter without laptop if needed





Full Harness





MSD Adapter Harness

So... if someone wanted/needed to go to the Daytona box....all that would be needed is the box and an adapter ?

That's great

yup that's the truth. however, with as many problems as i and others have had with the msd box, i intend to get daytona sensor's harness as well to eliminate any possible variables...but the option remains open to those that don't want to rewire their car.
