Firm for now, since I just lowered it and includes shipping. I'll revisit in a couple weeks if it hasn't sold.

This is a bit misleading since you didn't also mention it as a con for turbos. A properly sized turbo makes target boost at an earlier RPM than PD superchargers and present more danger to the rods. ...

Looking at just the charger unit, I'm a big fan of the Edelbrock/Harrop/Cosworth/etc. The TVS 1320 on the Edelbrock is the same blower core used for some OEM mass produced cars (e.g. Audi B8 S4).

Yes, looking for about $2500 in Atlanta area. I'll get the proper pics up soon in the classifieds.
