He's selling it for his boss. Just a pointer, if you find out what's missing(names of parts)laith it will probably sell pretty quick, because if it still has the warranty, you can get them free from vortech saying that they broke.

mamba-What's happening with that heat exchanger thing for thevortechyou were talking about last week? Anything going on with that?

I'd ask them if they have the part/s and get them even if they're broken. If they're not broken, get the warranty info and say that your mechanic was going to install the vortech but those parts were broken and he threw them out. See if they could ship you those parts then, if it's going to cost you some money b/c they needed the parts, find out how much it would cost and value it next to a new kit. Sounds like a great deal if you can get the missing parts. Good Luck on getting blown !

Go buy it(if you are)with someone that knows superchargers. Make sure there aren't any other parts missing. I'd check it out first. The no receipt, missing parts thing does sound very fishy. And don't listen to me on the calling vortechand lying.Tell them the situation and ask them what to do. And ask theseller why the parts are missing in thefirst place? Good Luck!

Yeah I got a brand spankin new one that is aluminum and about 3x the size of the other one!!!! It looks and works awesome. And I think that I found the problem of were my power was. They never purget the air out of my cooler system so I was basically heating the air going into my engine rather than cooling it down!!!! So that could have very well been it!!!!
