I agree with you for the most part. It would be a lot of work to piece it together.
However, I did speak to him about this yesterday. He would be able to put the rest of it together for around 1K more installed because he does have the necessary additional parts. He has a close relationship with Comptech as well and tons of extra parts for the SC due to supporting the flamemobile. He has a huge inventory in that shop from all the blower installs and knockoffs he has done.
The problem is these guys driving up the price so early. I was willing to pay up to 1K for that thing, maybe even some more, but at this rate it will be well into 2K by next week. Oh well...
I do agree with you on the difficulty. Unless you do live around this area, AND unless you have a great relationship with the mechanic, it could be tough to complete the system. Just because I could get the rest of this thing built up by Larry doesn't mean anyone could. It would require legwork and I'm sure he wouldn't do it for anyone.
It's a moot point anyway... won't be able to afford it at this rate. sigh...
Added later:
HOLY MOLY!!! It just shot up over $2500!!!
Unbelievable. I think you can buy that unit straight from whipple for less than that.
I could get the whole thing installed for 4-5K you know where... no way I'd pay that much just for the unit. Sorry... I'm out.
What are these guys thinking???
