I did free shipping and the batteries arrived in 3 days for a total of $139.03.

Power-Sonic 2 x 12V/18AH Sealed Lead Acid Battery w/ NB Terminal
SKU: PS-12180-NBx2 (8429) $99.49 $99.49

Power-Sonic PSH-12180NB FR Sealed Lead Acid Battery
SKU: PSH-12180FR (21861) $54.99 $54.99

SUBTOTAL $154.48
SHIPPING -
Thursday Special (M024PTL - 10% OFF) - $15.45
TOTAL $139.03

Here is what is confirmed.

This battery set-up will provide starting needs above -10 C.

I will not be shipping batteries, it is the most cost effective approach...... 139USD/ shipped/ 3 days to your door.

@fenton, can you put this quote on the 1st post.
@Pug, Thanks!

First post updated with battery requirements for running the kit.

These batteries will not be included with the kit as they can be picked up cheaper in the states and with FREE shipping!

Thanks,

Thanks,

Just make it simple. Anyone buying the kit should just go to atbatt.com. Based on the options Rob provided me the battery costs will range from $150 to $225. I elected to go with then destroied (very long and dumbass story) the oddessy PC 680 ($120.00). The selection of this battery increases the cost by $65.00 over the power sonic option. Shiping is free, but if you need it now 3 day shipping adds another $50.00.

I can confirm atbatt pricing is agressive, picked up a local Oddessy PC 680 for $150.00 to replace the one I damaged.

Yes and led to a kit installation revision. Personally the new installation will be less of an issue when going through tech inspection for autocross or track day events.

Did you put the batteries in parallel?

Pug · 08-29-2013, 08:49 PM

My installation kit arrived Monday; unfortunately for me I've been in Virginia since the weekend and got back this afternoon.

I only have the energy tonight to unbox everything. Here's the start of my installation album; I got some pictures of each piece in the box, a closeup of the throttle switch and the non-advanced monitor, etc.

Pre-installation photo requests are hereby solicited. I'll be installing Saturday, so for best results speak now!

Sub'bing. By far the most interesting mod I've seen. Can't wait for official pricing. Might be able to get this come tax time next year

asher187 · 08-30-2013, 07:45 AM

I just switched to E85 with an Ecutek tune and it is AWESOME!!!! I can't wait to run the this system with E85!

Ingen · 08-30-2013, 10:11 AM

Man I hope there will be a new thread when the production kit and pricing is released. Is it buried in here somewhere?

I WANT IT, SO BADLY. SELL IT TO ME!!

I am so jealous, When can I drive up and have a look?

Edit: What type of tune will you be running PUG?

Thatruth2001 · 08-30-2013, 11:21 AM

I think someone should start polling buyers.

All you ecutek owners one day away from a tuning solution.

Pug · 08-30-2013, 01:48 PM

I will start untuned per Rob's request. All for testing. After that I will be using the 'generic' tune from Toma.

I will be travelling next week too, so my current hope is to be at the meetup with @jeffsides on 15 Sept.
