hey guys figured I would put this in here to help someone out. I purchased a s2k master spacer from ALL IN but it turns out I don't even need it. He sells them for 45$ shipped so I would do 40$ shipped next day.

email me at simplisticauto@gmail.com if you want it.

cuz its advanced man... talkin some serious research and investments to get the right tools, wires, plugs, crimpers.. if your just doing 1 would be cheaper to buy. The crimper tool is $200 alone.

Not trying to sound like an *** here but yea i get that. I am a perfessional automotive technician owning my own shop with 10k + worth of tools not including my box. I was just saying considering this is the shaved tucked thread how come there is no info on where to get these plugs.

Almost looks like you've been inside my head! Nice work, I'm deep in the design stage of a very similar setup but its gonna be awhile before I get the cheddah to start on it. Fortunately I have enough other projects to keep me busy in the mean time.
