Tis the season for deals! I want some stuff for my car (997tt) and hope that there are some deals to be had. Please list the prices here or PM me.

Pbox - (I'm still waiting for shipping costs from Neil Switzer if you read this)

BMC drop-in filter (lol, hopefully with instructions on how to get into the stock airbox)

Sachs clutch setup with the uprated 764 pressure plate.

I'll think of more stuff and add it, but that's it for now...

How bout an avatar pic too. You need one of those for sure. So before Santa takes it make sure he puts on a nice set of lightweight forged rims first .

How about having the guts to actually list the prices in a thread? it's always "pm me for a killer deal".

Chris, that's our doing. We ask vendors not to post prices on the open forums. It prevents one vendor from "one up'ping" another vendor.

To the OP, a drop in BMC is as easy as 123, call RSS they have them in stock, i think they are around $200 if im not mistaken, and seriously it takes about 2 minutes to change. The plastic housing for the air filter pulls right out by hand, then there are approx 6 or 8 screws holding the filter in place, remove the screws, add the new filter, screw it in and place the filter cover back on and VOILA, or set to go.

Bob, it would be nice if the vendors would start to one up each other, then we can get the deals we so desperately want

We ask them to post the prices in the vendor classifieds or marketplace. When vendors post in the general forums, it should be a general "new product" or "new development" or "new build" announcement. Many have complained that the general forums are cluttered with too many ads.

Boggy. For a man so hell bent on power, why spend your hard earned money on an 'aural' upgrade like the filters? If I'm not mistaken, they don't do much in the way of hp, if anything.

I pulled mine out, I think it may in some strange way, been causing some CEL's. My 'post cat too rich' CEL started when I installed that filter, removed it and no CEL since but too early to tell.

Perhaps I needed the tune to reflect the added air flow? Who knows. You would think a simple filter would not require the tune but the o2 sensors sure are picky.

Might also be the plugs, they're known to fail quickly with a tune. Any other symptoms?
