MrMiata or GG ?

After reviewing the reponses to my listing (both PM and E-mail) I determined by the actual time of their responses that MrMiata was the first in line to purchase the unit. He sent me a $50.00 PayPal payment. THEN he e-mailed me to suggest I check the unit because the part number corresponded to a 74mm throttle body and not the stock 68mm throttle body . . . Now that's being honest!
Yeah and silly me thought if it wasn't just an electronics swap on it we could possibly re-negotiate a decent "my mistake .. work with me" price that was a little more fair for you and still a good deal for me.
But that's fine.. as tenacious as I am with Ebay and bargains ($35 right front fog light in the spare parts bin) I'll find a non forum member who doesn't have a clue and get a 74mm upgrade, leaving my 68mm as a spare.
I do believe with Corky's performance it's time to let them find another "2nd" prototype, as I'd be bullistic by this time waiting on my car to return. And now I find I have no faith in a 2-3 week turn around for my car.

To maybe clarify... Jan. 20th becomes the 1 year anniversary for DJ's car being a Texas resident... and that really is sticking in my mind. That and the Miata saga where the owner drove his home a year later with the Turbo in the trunk and a "we're sorry, but we were so close" note in his hand.
