Default Meth question.

Is there a big difference between the ECS alky kit and the alky control kit? Or are the the same?
I'm looking to order one and just want what ever is better at this point.
It's going on a ECS c6z.

I believe ECS helped them develop the Alky kit.

No difference and Julio offers same support even if purchased from a vendor.

Nice sarcasm.....
If you are getting the support of a shop, by all means I would buy from them. If you do things yourself, buy from whoever gives you good service.

Bret gave me the best price I've seen on the alky kit.. Otherwise they are exactly the same. You can call Julio either way.

blownbluez06... one of the best vendors out there imo, he can usually beat anyone else's prices but the catch is that he's always there to help... the same can't be said of some of the vendors, especially the one you mentioned in your original post

Yep! He's answered more than a few questions from me and gives out his cell phone #. And he actually asked questions about exactly what I wanted/needed so that the kit didn't include any parts that I wouldn't need, included the right nozzle, suggestions for initial setup, etc.

I bought mine from Doug at ECS and have received great customer service from both Julio and Doug. I'm pretty positive you'll get the same support no matter where you buy it.

Who els relocated their AIT sensor and where did you put it? What's the best location?

Any pics would help.
