On it pal, my things to do tommorow are: -
1. Confirm oversized variety are available for both LC & HC.
2. Confirm these kits are supplied with all appropriate stuff to fit OE rods.
3. Can he now confirm 5 off price as we have (dare I say it) confirmed 5

Not had a reply back from Cituning re the better pricing for 5 off etc, wont chase them till next week.
Blackie could you change the title of this thread to: GROUP-BUY: Forged Wossner Pistons £450, i'm sure we will get more intrest that way
What are your thoughts to opening this group-buy up to 106owners and other appropriate forums?
Thanks.

i sent a email to pug10ff yesterday about their forged pistons and rods, they messaged me back sayin they will call me on monday to have a chat about a group buy to see what discount they can offer on the amount of people in the buy.. i will try find out a price on just pistons and just rods on a group buy then a price on both together and will find out about what comes with them.

Hehe Blackie, there is a EDIT button on everyone of 'your' posts, this allows you to modify that post and it's title, do this on the 1st post and it'll all make sence

Cituning have spent alot of time & effort getting pricing for us and it will be very un-professional to all of a sudden say 'were looking else where now' not to say make me look like a right DICK!!!, as you know I have already spent alot of money with them not to say spent many hours on the phone to them asking how things work and there advise on matters, I personally WONT jeopardize this relationship if it does come to pass that Pug1off come up with a better price however I think it will be doubtful they will, my business with/without discount will be going to Cituning purely as a thankyou for all the time I (along with others) have spent on the phone with them, I hope you understand my position Sexoturb.
If and when this group-buy changes directions to Pug1off I think its only fair I give Cituning as much prior notice of this fact!!! I will then 'NOT' post here again and bid you fairwell

When I ran the Innovate LC-1 group-buy I got a few off 106owners, it may prove fruitful but its a gamble worth taking imho

sorted mate, fuck knows why thats never worked before as ive tried it numerous times but never had the option to change te title???? fuck it its on now, as for the buying we need to stick to one or the other we have details for the cituning buy basically sorted, so imo we should go with that as even if pug1off come up cheaper it will only be coppers as theres only so much you can do with a price.... end of the day if its not solidly on one thing ppl arent going to commit and its going to fuck up the buy?

You spelt pistons wrong LOL
My point exactly Blackie, there is only so much a item can be discounted by, you have to also look at what they offer in regards to support and what they have spent on research & design, I dont see a pug1off bespoke designed turbo manifold & downpipe... I'm not slating them btw I'm just trying to put myself in Cituning shoes, how I would react if a customer said he had 3 customers for him, sorted out a discounted price based on this and then say, well infact I was just pulling his plonker and I was taken them to pug1off.

hey guys
Right, rad through the thread since my last post andthe 18th of december sounds good to me, £225 to one side this month and then im paid again on the 18th
So count me as a defo guys
Only way i will drop out is if something major happens before that time (like i loose my arms or something), which i doubt tbh
Also, defo need to find out if they come with everything to fit OE rods and if they come with rings, which i think is being asked next week

had 1l ov glens m8 lol, looked a it (saying piton at first.. edited to pitons thinking that doesnt look right and left as was for the boxing lol, totally agree with the question at hand, not just about a buy, as its good discount from cituning themselves(were only going to get 5-10 diffrent at a push anywhere else), gotta think about the sax-p name aswell as our buy, we put business their way theyll be inclined to hlep us further as a community, we fuck them about thats a strike against the site9not going to hlep evry waster emailing with promise of a poss £1500 sale, theres always a bigger picture, and karl ill say 100% as i was sure but asked and ricky p confirmed so ill put both of us at stake for it, as said in a previous post most mods are direct replacement as all are "supposed" to be interchangeable this means better business as you wont in theory need the rods to run that promotes 1 product in favour of 2, glad your getting another lump mate, same as me, much easier this way, going for uprated bearing too?

at this particular buy is just for piston, i do want rods and will be looking into this but as of now the prices are ridiculous and many may not be able to afford both, by all means look into it as i and others probably will want them

It's no one's fault m8
Its not done yet no, was expecting an email today with answers to a few questions but nothing has yet arrived, no definate pricing yet, we are hoping for a little further discount as the number of serious intrest has increased.
Have stuck a post on 106owners referance this group-buy, plenty of views but no replies as of yet...
