I don't think there's any differences. It's the packaging. I'll go check them out.

I'm looking for data-logging capable software. Also, someone on the S2000 club has this product so I'll ask him questions also. He recently built his own f20c engine, installed an FI system and used this to tune.

They're literally next door, next to Coherent Laser....

Probably not eveything. If i do do a trade in, i'll sell the coilovers, RB sways if someone wants to pay the labor to take them out, short shifter, euro spoiler trunk swap, rb intake swap, and maybe exhaust swap, and definiatly i'll get a set of oe wheels or a swap. I'll take out the MP3 player and the Ipod adaptor. i'll take out the flood lights and rear rotor lights and maybe the hood shocks if someone wants them. MS sides, front lip, and rear mud guards i'll leave.

Damn i have a load of crap on the car....

I'd buy the hood shocks. You can even have my prop rod if you need it.

Maybe the screens too. How much are you charging, and are they painted? I forgot.
