    Problem is

    no intercooler, hoses, resivoir, or pump. No lower intake or mounting plate. No aternator bracketry or belt, idler pulley, crank pulley. no BAP, no chip or handheld, no cross over tube.

    Theres more i missed i'm sure. I just don't wanna see some of the more uninformed perhaps newer members get in deep and over there heads.

    The picture looks impressive untill you've had a big trilogy box tore apart in your living room taking inventory for two hours.

    Not really. I've seen the Cobra Eatons go for $200. What it really needs to be worthwhile is the lower manifold, heat exchanger, and hose adapter. Then the biggie is alternator and tensioner relocation.
    Thanks to Darrin @ BC Automotive:
    $1800 and it was worse than when he started!
