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

Think of it this way. A intake is just a stupid metal pipe and a filter. Many companys like AEM or Injen sell them for $250.
WHERE IS THE SOUND CLIP?

The biggest cost is the ATI Procharger! Even if you can get a good used one it’s going to cost up to $1800 to have it completely rebuilt. btw ATI has great customer service!! Rebuilt and returned in less then 14 days!! Can the project be done for less then $5k? Sure! But with everything you have to plan on problems during the install. I dropped $400 alone on new air tools just to get the crank pulley off. If you plan on a shop to do your install it could cost another $1k

Nice, but Keoni right. It will be tough to piece the kit together. The most expensive stuff is the supercharger itself and the hardest parts to get is the custom crank pulley and supercharger bracket which were both CNC. I should know I help put this kit together and finalize the kit. BTW I do still have a set of the crank pulley and supercharger bracket. I hope the partlist some of you guys got was more clear up than the last one. If anyone needs help with a used kit of the install I have some pics that may help also.

Hey man. You need to lighten up those wheels. Some of the gains off that SC are going to be negated by those heavy heavy wheels. I had the mrr's before. Freaking great looking wheel for the price; however, they weigh a ton. Ditch that extra rotational weight and you should be booming. Or if you go to the track put your stock wheels back on.
nice job.
nice job.

Piping wouldn't actually be that hard, you just need to know the sizes, cause they're not the same width. The bracket on the other hand is custom, so you would have to find someone that can make the EXACT same one.

You're not wrong, I never said it would cost near $5k, what I'm saying is that, people expect piecing a kit together would be around $2k when it wont be. They look at the situation and see $2-$3000 and they say no already. IMHO I think it'll cost roughly mid $3s, the charger alone is over $2k brand new.

we'll be waiting on videos, sound clip, dyno, track time, and even videos of kills from all you SC'd 2IS owners.

I'm going to try to post a video tonight. In car, outside revs because I love giving people what they want
. I know a lot of people say that the SC sounds like its surging but its not, thats the way the BOV sounds. Its like a fluttering sound and to be honest I like it
