Wow, that's cheaper than what I can get it for.

Not sure on availabilty, as I tried to order one for a customer thru my connections, and they were at least 60-90 days out.

I did alot of searching, that was the cheapest source I found, (found one cheaper, alot cheaper, but they jacked up the price before i was ready to buy.)
I ordered from there, it came tp $2849 shipped, it's on back order > till the end of august. that shipment will contain the new unit that works with both manual And auto trans.

Make up your mind bro. You should sit down and figure out which you want to do wether its supercharge or turbo. Dont just go for price. You arent going to find the blitz for much less than the 2700 bucks on that site and when you do put it on, you arent going to be happy with the 30whp it gives you and you are stuck with that. At least with a turbo you can do ALOT more tuning for more power.....

and be careful with Blitz right now. I'm told that theyre having some internal struggles within the company. I was told my the local performance shop to use COD or something thats returnable. Blitz may even pull out of North America. I'm not hip up on these companies but this is what I was told by a guy local in Omaha when I tried to order. I went to go and inquire about ordering and theyre saying 2 months for him too, and I guess its only getting worse. Just an FYI. Dont bite my head off here if you know more than me, this is just what im told.

ya i know, i was going to turbo, but i got in an accident, and the price for the stock parts i need is way more than just getting a bodykit, so now im gunna get a bodykit..... then saving up for airride, and the blitz wouldn't over power the bags like a turbo would..... its a chain of things, and it sucks, but damn careless drivers, i am soo ____ed about that crash..... but anyways on a happier note... my mom saw u driving on the highway, she was coming back from a business trip or suttin, and she seen u blast by her, she said it sounded NICCCEEE! lol......

Sorry to hear about the accident bro, that sux. Where did I pass her? If I knew it was her, I would have beeped and waved. What do you mean it would 'overpower' the bags? Well anyways, you coming up to the meet on Sunday? Its at Wooster St pizza again, same as last time. I still think you should save your pennys and buy the kit from Jesse. You would be WAY happier with a turbo instead of the charger, but thats just my opinion. Especially if the above post is right about the company going downhill. You dont want to give them any loot and then not be able to get your cash back if they go under. I have seen it happen alot. You WONT get the money back. And if you do, it will be like 4% of it by the time they finish paying back larger debtors.

i forgot who told me but he said that if i got a turbo, it in time would overpower the bags, cause problems with the bags, cause them to pop, ect.... i wish that wasnt true, dunno if it is.... jesse gave me a deal, i would love to work suttin out with a turbo and air ride.... that would be off the chain....... but yeah ill be there, in manchester i mean.... but anybody air bag gurus know if a turbo would overpower air suspension, and cause problems?......... let me know............

I don't understand how a turbo would have anything to do with air ride.

I've seen 500 hp cars with air ride.

im dying for FI induction right now. A greddy supercharger or direct bolt on turbo kit would be cool. From what I've seen on Greddy turbos so far, is theyre not bolt on yet. dont know for sure though.
