yep you guys are right ... here's a pic he took of his IC



more pics of what he's selling incase you didn't see his classified thread.







Here's a closeup of from the other site (This isn't a pic of the sellers IC) ... I guess the "parts" pic is just a generic one used for all ATI Prochargers

Hmmm in the original post didn't you say it has never been used? If he is sending installed pics does that mean he has more than one kit? or is there some misleading goin on?

very confused...

either way I love that procharger sound, and it's very upgradeable

Sorry I didn't explain it well enough ... the install pic is from another site of shop's Z project NOT of the sellers.

One of Robby's (Driven1) friends who lives in West palm beach is going to check it out for me (or so I hope). I'm still waiting for a reply.

this is the most research and precautions I've ever seen taken for a purchase on this forum, and I thought I was bad.

ahhhhh I see, really nice find. I have spoke with techs at ATI and even though the do not list a pulley kit other than the 7psi pulley for the Z you can order individual "cogs" to change the ratio's to your desired boost. They say that their FMU will not support antything over 7psi though...

edit: damn pics didn't load at work! now i see... my bad! 5:52pm

Dude, your up to what, 3 different people that were "supposed" to go by? Hes not going to way forever, and someone might come along and ****** it out from under you. Just think of it like Blackjack, sooner or later you have to double down and go for the big money!

That's what I'm afraid of. I'm going to get on the ball and hopefully find out within the next day.

Give em a deposit of like $100 bucks ta hold it for u while you get your peoples to check it out. I'm sure no one's gonna jump the gun on it since it's rare enough to find people that want to dish out 3k on the spot. Not to mention he knows you're a serious buyer, afterall, you started a whole thread on buying his product!

And yes! Get the cooler! It saves lives! =D

Thanks Keith, I think I may leave my sig alone and become a "sleeper". Although I think it would be pretty hard to hide the jet engine sound

You guys are gonna think I'm nuts but I actually just looked up flights from Dulles (5 miles from my Condo) to West Palm Beach $165 total for a round trip SAME DAY flight for this Saturday. I might book this flight and make the Seller pay half (he already said he'd pay shipping which would have been $80)

Depart: 10:30am
morning Washington, DC
Washington Dulles Intl (IAD) Non-stop
Arrive: 12:58pm

LOL damn bro, you going to box it up there and bring it back as carry on? Or checked baggage? LOL!

Seriously though man, are you taking into consideration, that you have to arrange a time to meet up with him, and see the stuff, and that you have to find a way to meet (rather it be have him meet at the airport or rent a car). Money can add up, and what if he/it is a no show. Yea your only out a bit of money, but your also out your weekend, and then youll be all cranky, and we don't like a cranky Karl =)

LOL Actually that's not what I'm worried about, there's only like 48 mins between landing in West Palm and Taking off.

Might be pushing it. All the other same day flights are more and would take up the whole day. Right now I'm just in a "eff it" mood.

Yeah I know it's not the greatest plan in the World, but it's definitely the most impulsive quick-let-me-have-it solution.

Nice... Good luck trying to bring it back carry on (Airport security will have a field day with you). I'd probably ship it next day from FL and eat the cost. You're saving money by buying the kit, so if you want piece of mind, just ship it out insured.
