andre, i paid $1850 for my head unit polished a few years ago. (that was dealer price)


since yours is new you should get about the same price. i think vortech just raised all their prices 5%.

check

http://www.superchargersonline.com/p...-Trim_headunit

they are fairly cheap (for a retail store) and that will give you an good idea





i just paid 1550 for a procharger d1-x (just rebuilt) with bracket and braided oil line.

>I guess your right , but I don't want to make any extra money off of it , because I want to sell it so I can get the bigger YS-trim .
If I have ton I will put it on EBay , but I'm trying to avoid that .

Jim S. sold his T-trim with complete kit (used/low miles <8k I think*) for $2100. He sold it QUICK, so I'd say 1800ish would get it sold fairly quickly (week or so?). More money, more patience .

how much power are you planning on making anway?

John (Vortechxxx) had a t-trim before blowing up his motor and it helped make 635 at the wheels if I remember right.

just trying to save you some money...

>There is no reason to help me save money ... I have a pretty healthy budget .
I would love to make over 1000 HP at the rear wheels even if it means not being Massachusetts emissions legal . But that is the goal (both emissions legal and 1000 HP) .

I bet you can do it.

I wonder how everyone in the NE forum has a healthy budget but me. Stock longblock cars are going to be the minority soon. sheesh.

>I want to stay with Vortech (I'm kind of weird when it comes to brand loyality) , but as for the XX-trim , XXX-trim , or Z-trim ... well the objective is to try and stay emissions legal . That is why everything is so expensive .
The only reason I can spend the amount that I detemind necessary on my car is , because I don't really have a car payment , and the wife is the bread maker in the family (I don't mean yeast either ) .So my $2.00 an hour goes towards the Camaro .
