So basically the same as the christmas special? I know the black friday deal was even better something like 450 with free shipping. I mean don't get me wrong I can appreciate the stillen bucks thing and all but unless we were able to use that towards the intakes theres not much reason I would need it. I'm just not seeing the point of getting a group buy together if were getting the same deal that others are getting just for a specific monthly special. Not trying to be an ******* but were proving that you will sell at least 11 intakes right off the bat from this group buy, I'm sure your managers can do better, if not i shall take my money elsewhere. I appreciate the communication back and forth and responding back to us but I'm sure others can agree with my opinion.

I can appreciate that you're looking for the best deal possible, but I'm not sure what you're expecting here.

This is an expensive kit to build, basically two cold-air intakes with the dual throttle body design. We also put them on sale this month, so we're doing a discount in addition to an already lowered price, just for the members here.

I wish this could be a $350 intake kit as well, but that's just not possible. We've done everything we can to keep the retail price down as it is, even at the "normal" price of $549.

I'm sure that even if a large item purchase isn't in your future, you could always use the STILLEN bucks against other items, Redline Oil for instance.

With the timing of the sale, and these, $100 in discounts and we're picking up the shipping.. could be as much as a 20% savings.

I'm sure we can get more than just 15 people in this groupbuy if it's $449 shipped outright without rebates or gift cards, etc...

If we have this deal, I'll be the first to order.

I by no means am expecting to pay $350 for the intake that would be very unreasonable on my part, and I'm sure others are not expecting that either. All I'm basically saying is you were able to sell them for $450 on black friday weekend in which I was going to purchase but priorities were different at the time. If we can get 15 orders like said by Kuhan is this a possible deal? I'm not expecting a miracle price alright, just the price I previously had seen that I thought would be possible if you were able to sell enough volume at one time. Thanks

I'd be intrested too but have been checking out the pricing. I'm from Finland (Europe) and I was thinking about that you have free shipping including to price and I doubt it is only for US customers? Do you ship to Finland and what would be shipping?

+1 i mean wth if you gonna give us 50 bucks to spend on something else then give it to us now. i understand you want us to come back and purchase more stillen products but i think this is the wrong way to go about doing it.

+1 to that, I'd buy right away if you could get us 450 out the door. Thats pretty much all were asking, and I'm sure we can get more people in for that price and if we make this an official group buy instead of just a feeler thread. Let us know man, were all looking forward to this.

Ive seen these intakes cheaper on ebay. There is nothing else I want from stillen so what good is a fifty dollar gift card. Only way this deal is good is if you could use the card on the intakes, and free ship.

Alright.. I went to bat for you guys, and here's what I was able to do.

If we can set the number at 20, we can do the $449.00 plus $9.95 shipped to the 48 states, others beyond that will just pay actual freight. This matches the one day special we had months ago, and is the lowest these have been sold for.. period.

We will take the orders, hold them, and ship once we get to 20.

Sound good?
