Please have a closer look at the details.

-750cc fuel injectors with this kit 600cc injectors with the twin kits
-340lph fuel pump with this kit, 255lph fuel pump with twin kits
-Complee oil cooler kit with this kit
-Oil pan spacer with this kit (no need to drill/tap OEM pan)

That alone is about $600 worth of upgrades. Then on top of that this kit will cost you about $1500 less when it comes to the install.

Sorry, but I am not a big gearhead so I didn't know enough to know about the upgrades. I am just looking at overall final kit costs. $1500 is a significant savings for install labor, though. Maybe when I have replenished my savings (just bought a place), you'll have a version for the 7at. :tup:

No worries, just thought I point that out. It can easily be overlooked. I think a comparable twin kit (power wise) is about $700 more on top of the $600 worth of upgrades, then you still have the $1500 install difference. It does add up to a good chunch of change.

I really wish this was available 18 months ago...I'd still have my Z today if it was. Your attention to detail and customer service goes above and beyond what most performance shops have to offer.

Thank you, it is good to see that people see the goal here. Like I said before, this is the reason I will only do about half a dozen kits at one time. This way each customer will get all the attentioin during this entire process. No PM/question has gone unanswered.

That was my main reason for buying from Sasha. I will always support excellent customer service.

if it fits AT, I would buy that last kit BP. I looked up the price and its 7300 for the full kit, I thought it was 6800 or around that, did it go up?

Sorry, the kit will not fit the a/t gearbox cars. The price was never that low. Original estimates were about $7300-$7500. Just remember, this includes an oil cooler kit and those will set you back $400 if buying new from somewhere else. Then there is the larger fuel pump and injectors on top of that, as well as an oil pan spacer. All these things add up, yet the kit is still cheaper than a comparable (power vise) tt kit even with all these extras.

I want to buy a kit just so I can look at it in my garage everyday.

Sasha,
Will this kit fit a Dodge Viper? :icon17:

Just to let you know, the scavenge pump arrived yesterday. Damn that thing looks and feels heavy duty :tup:. Can't wait to see the next thing the UPS guy brings me :happydance: but those damn 'brokerage fees' are a real bitch :ughdance:.

Yeah, I have a couple of suppliers that refuse to ship with anybody else. I have been trying to work around that for the past few months. No luck yet. UPS is fine for anything within either U.S or Canada, but as soon as a package goes across the border from the U.S in to Canada, magical charges appear. Not the case when shipping from Canada to U.S....and I just don't get it.

I don't know what it is. I have called UPS to see how they come up with these brokage fees, and nobdy can explain it to me. It is not a percentage of the value on any item, and it is not a flat fee of any sort. It seems like it is a number they pull out of the hat, and asign it to a paticular parcel.

On top of that, they don't provide insurance anymore because they had a large insurance claim by a customer a few months ago... :shakes head: WTH is that all about?

Anyway...that is the end of my UPS rant.

I just hate when I order something if we're not home they just leave it on my door step. WTF is up with that. I asked what would happen if someone came and stole it. The chick said that as long as it was delivered to the address they are not held accountable. So now when I do order something I make sure I'll be home that day to receive it.
