Sell yours to me and make a new one : D

Thus far I have the blower unit and intercooler. The rest (piping, hoses, clamps, mounts, etc) are being delivered friday.

I doubt they powder coated the piping. The parts manager said he would take care of it and the owner called me a few days later to say it would in fact NOT happen.


Honestly, I am considering selling it. With my wife being pregnant and all, I am on the fence about keeping it...

dont get me wrong, boost is but I dont see how piecing a kit up would cost anywhere near the $5k msrp. $50 for a filter, $20-30 for a pulley, $100-150 for an intercooler, some U-bend, couplers, clamps, and of course the procharger. I think the most troublesome part is to fabricate piping and brackets. correct me if i'm wrong
