About $200 less than what FAST charges for their eight channel EGT box. :)

Way cool.

What are you thinking it would cost to bring up a 4 channel EGT setup on an existing MS3 install including the bungs, sensors...?

Finishing up testing; it should be out soon unless we find unexpected issues.

Sounds good.
Would it come in a cheaper 4cyl variation or is 8cyl the only option?

It's a 3.5mm TRRS connector:

Where the tip is 12V (optional), the first ring is CANH, the second ring is CANL and the sleeve is ground.

The option we'd originally planned to use was a solder cup connector, but we had issues with the solder coming off of it. We have switched to a ready made pigtail. They're now live on the site:

Not at present - I don't think the savings would be all that much.
