I got mine from PTE when they were first coming out. I also bought a GTQ turbo from them at the same time. Previously, I'd purchased other items from Harry, billet cam, GN-1's, bearings, FAST... Not one of their biggest spenders but a frickin pile of money to me! It seems everytime I mention something concerning PTE, I get a not so subtle nudge for mentioning their name. I'm pretty happy with them though so don't take that to mean I have an unhappy relationship with them. After all, I did return to them after about 4 years for the Geo project.
In a nutshell, I paid what eveyone else did for the BS3. The reason I returned to them is simple. Harry Hruska. We're not good buddies but certainly not enemies, I'm just a customer that he has lended a hand to on a few occasions. He's also offered to do the same on my Geo project. I bought a combination that he and Dan Strezo recommended and it ran like a bullet from day one. The vendor posting above me has also been very gracious in answering all my questions. Seems like a good person to deal with but I try to stick with a known quantity and he wasn't available to me when I built my first GN.
I like the BS3 at least as much as my FAST and I really haven't gotten too deep into it.
Mine is a bank to bank plain vanilla unit. Seems like there are several other units of the BS3 family with more options. I hope Meaney is resonable in the upgrade costs as I'd like to have boost control and nitrous flow in the same box. It amazes me that no-one has done that yet for us.
I got on the car for the first brief second tonight. Seems the fuel and spark are decent from the initial program anyway. Thing spooled and moved out. GD this thing has some potential!!!
