Bought mine brand new, in the box from another forum user for ~$825(?). If you're not tracking your car, any of the 5" ICs are good. I probably would've gone with the AA or ER kits if I didn't find a Helix. Both come with the cold piping between the FMIC + CP

Fully aware that the Helix is #1 (that's why it's in my car ), I just mentioned those two cause they're less expensive. Figured since we're in a VRSF-related thread, we're trying to cut cost here.

Random but I went to Dson in Carlisle, how's being in central PA with a BMW?? Prob stick out A LOT with all the pickups

The hold up is due to a member who is taking quite a bit longer to test fit these than promised. I'm currently trying to get them back so we can get moving on production.

Haha plastidip Well I'm sure you deal with plenty of American Muscle trying to get some pulls on you. Will say the nice thing about PA is there's LOTS of straight roads and when there are no cars (and if PD is busy getting grits) you can really open it up. When there's traffic, that part PA is hell with all the 2-lane highways

Still trying to get our test set back from this forum member. I'm going to have our guys weld up another one on the jig and try to find another test vehicle.

I'll drive up and you can throw them on my car! I'd happily be a tester!

Oh, and add me to the list waiting to order when they're ready!

While I definitely appreciate the support, there could be plenty of legitimate reasons he hasn't responded to PM's. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt for now and am now awaiting a second test set to arrive.
