Call him back and ask him what the name of the shop is (was) and the address. I'll check on it and let ya'll know if it's legit.

It's too nerve racking for me. I've been dicked 4 times so far, and I've bought nigh 50 things. Those are some nasty odds. I'm getting sick of dealing with people. I'd rather have a machine and computer process my order.

the guy emailed me back and said he closed his shop and had to sell his parts wholesale.

I'm gonna have to pass on this one. Has anyone looked to see if people are bidding on his kits.

Yeah there are actually bids on the items. Unless he can produce ACTUAL photographs of the kits (not Vortech stock item photos), perhaps listing SERIAL NUMBERS, etc. then I'd be convinced a little more. His auctions have fraud written all over them! Even at $1500, that would be below wholesale for a Vortech kit with an aftercooler. Sounds way too good to be true.

He's got one feedback now.. positive rating from a Steeda Subframe Connector.

Also.. he's got two 96/97 SC kits.. if this guy turns out being legit, what would be the difference between a this kit and one for a 99+? i.e. would it fit a PI headswapped 96?

I just bought a used vortech s-trim kit on ebay for my 00 gt for 1600 and as I thought when i bought it, it was definitely too good to true. I just had the supercharger installed and there was a lot of parts missing and damaged. There was no fuel pump, fuel lines were broken, and the list goes on. The guy made it very clear in the add that the kit was complete and perfectly working. It turned out then I could have bought a new kit for 600 dollars more.

Looks like he's got the kits relisted...he has positive feedback now, 3 positive from buying items, only 1 for selling. I e-mailed him to see if he could provide some serial numbers...what a deal if it were true!

If someone would get this guy's name and his shop address, I could do some checking.

That is if anyone is interested.
