Topgun ACE supercharger kit with BROKEN blower
I have the Topgun ACE supercharger kit on my car since last Oct. After around 12 track days (about 5000mile) the head unit oil seal melt due to overheat. My car is mainly a track car, I decided to go back to NA so that I dont need to dealing with constant overheat issue. This kit works well on street, but not my use case.
selling the kit as is for $1700 shipped, buyer need to get a new head unit or rebuild the current one. |

Just a heads up to anyone who buys this, if done yourself vortech units can be rebuilt with new seals and bearings for stupid cheap (compared to buying a new one)

Just don't send it to Vortech, they'll automatically tell you it can't be rebuilt and then offer to give you a discount on a new one
