I wouldn't buy a used UDP... They aren't fairly expensive... To each their own though.

Please provide me an explanation why.
The UDP I am buying was used only for a couple hundred miles before it was taken off for a supercharger.

I think he's just saying that HE wouldn't. I don't think it's a big deal...especially when you know the person they're coming from (Nick & Joe - and they really take care of their car).

Yea... Im definately not worried about the seller. I just want to make sure I have no problems for installation, and all the right parts. I might take em over to Pitbull to get it done. Looking at Taco's writeup it doesnt seem like its something I can do in my driveway.

It's definately something you can do in your driveway, and I was just saying that I wouldn't get a used set. Something that vital of a part, I dunno.. Just doesn't make me feel comfortable.

I kinda agree with this....you are messing with something that is going to be on your crankshaft....I was looking for a used set for the longest time but decided on just getting them new for 192 from Tillman.....the only used sets I were finding were wanting 160+shipping.....
