I received an email stating that there was a supplier shipping error and that more kits should be in by the end of this week!

I would have liked a kit for xmas, but no luck...

Id love to get one but it always seems hard telling when anyone will get theirs. So last week I ordered another Freeduino and LCD. The Freeduino unit in the van works 100% flawlessly. When the Freeduino gets here Ill build one custom shaped to fit the wagon dash. Itll likely have to be a 2 piece unit.

woohooo, back in stock and got mine ordered

But now it seems they have two kits available, the complete kit and version one. One cost 39 and the other 42 but I couldn't tell a difference.

This should really help me out because now with the turbo I can't safely run down a tank all the way for fear of going lean under boost then BAM!, blown motor. I do have plans to build a surge tank though in the future.

The complete kit is version 2 with the RJ-11 and USB on the same side of the board. The complete kit version 1 is the old version with the ports on opposite sides. (I think)

Canada tracking reports that my unit has entered the United States, yeah! Soon I shall have my MPGuino goodness.

Thats what I was thinking too. Looks to be just a different layout. Accomplishes the same thing as far as I can tell.

Mine should be in today according to UPS tracking number

Too bad the kit doesn't come with wire taps. Hopefully off to Rat Shack this weekend...

Question though... am I looking for this or this?

I think the "Wire Tap-In Squeeze Connectors" would be a better choice, if you wish to go that route. I know them as "vampire taps" myself. Make sure the wires you want to put them are are 14 to 18 gauge, that's what their rated for.
