my buddy just bought the most cheapest opti on ebay. $70. some dealer was sellin them. he had a tight budget, mostly cause the car was in my driveway at the time. we installed it and its been at least 3 weeks and still workin good. no issues yet...oh ya...it was the non vented for a 95 z28. found out it had a 94 motor in it.

 

Have you looked at Summit or Jegs for a GM unit?

 

Look on Rock Auto. Delphi or AC Delco.

 

$360 on RockAuto for the Delphi.
$250 for Summit Brand
$380 for AC Delco at Summit
$400 for factory at Jegs
$240 for Jegs Brand

 

Hmmm, Dynaspark Gen III for LTCC/Delteq. $525.

 

Delteq is like out of business. Scratch it off the list.

 

That ship has long sailed. I just need the car to run right with it.

 

Hope you don't need any technical support/parts for it, since there does not seem to be any.

 

Yeah that's what I have found out recently on here. Kind of sucks, well, really sucks.

Jerks.

What about Ion/MadZ28? Is he still in business?

 

Yeah, he still is.

Reminds me of my Electromotive "Super Direct Ignition/Opti-Eliminator" setup install back in 1997..... same designer, same abandonment of buyers.

 

That's a shame.

I have an Electromotive Tec3 setup for my Mustang I got a while back second-hand. Haven't started on that car yet.

 

It wasn't Electromotive that was the problem, it was the techie who designed the SDI/O-E. Before he worked at Electromotive, he worked for Hypertech and worked on the Power Programmer for the LT1.

 

Oh OK good. Bummer, seems like this guy left a path.

I guess I have 3 options.

1. $200 for a used 1K mile "partsladi" GM opti "before she started ripping everyone off.
2. $360 or so for a new GM opti.
3. $525 for a 'optical' opti (Gen III) from Dynaspark or $600 for a Gen II opti 'in case' the Delteq craps out.

 

Option 2. I've had to do my opti twice and never want to again. Number 2. Spend the extra money.
