Cheaper option to the ESI Gigaport?

No they don't as far as I know. The reason I originally was looking at the MS-8 is because of my lack of knowledge on tuning haha. The reason I started looking away from it is due to some issues that are killing drivers and stuff. I think I'll stick with AM, seems to be quite a bit better then console.

And yes I know of which places you speak of.......might want to remove that line just in case lol.

Hopefully I can get close with this setup, I have a friend that did all his custom tweaking little by little on an H701 so he may be able to help a bit.

I'd have to get firewire onto my CarPC and also run a 12V connection to the box .

Well it can be powered off the firewire port, if you plan on going that route I'd get a firewire card that has a power header. I'm going to run 12V into mine though. There are plenty of cheap firewire cards out there if you can use full form factor, I had to use the low profile cards though. Most newer motherboards have firewire ports on them. My desktop has one but it's not working with Win7, I bought a TI chipset low profile card for the CarPC and it works awesomely.
