Not that I am aware of (not like the Recaro's) If I owned an SVT I would have tried to get it that's for sure that kit was worth over 3800.00 new and worth carrying a bit of debt for, it was tempting! It was not a complete kit and would have required a small amount of fabbing of an outlet tube and finding some hardware. The only reason I stumbled across it was that I am researching alternatives to the M90 Eaton and trying to get some Idea of what different brands and styles cost. Vortech head units have been selling on average about 750.00 on Ebay mostly used some new with the used head units going for around 500-600 and new around 1000.00. Kits (mostly for the Mustang) have been running 1000-2700 again those prices reflect used and new Kits. Of course new retail units are much higher.

I love Ebay! Unfortunately it is no longer for sale and I did not buy it. The person selling it had bought it and ended up not using it, this is a re-occuring story on Ebay where people purchase something and either they sell the car without going through with their plans, sell the car returning it back to stock and have a used unit for sale, wrecked their car, get a hold of something they have no clue about, and many more reasons why. The thing I found with Ebay is research what you want, find out what the going price is and then wait for the deal you want. Sometimes money is not as big an issue as time and you may want to pay a bit more or maybe the product for sale is just something you can't turn down. On the flip side waiting for a deal is like a Lioness lying in wait in the tall grasses of the Serengeti just waiting until that perfect Impala ambles by and BAM!

Thrill of the hunt, reward of the kill!
