Supercharger

i dont know of anyother place that has fitted as many has Steve.

I can think of at least two places :)

TTE take 4 hour to fit s/c kit and charge about e300 to do the job :winky:

Tony Goose had the system we supplied to him fitted at TTE. I seem to recall that they had 2 guys working on the car and it took four hours to do, so that makes 8 man hours in total which is about right in our experience.

E300 Euro's is a great price by a great company I wonder if they subsidised it?

How do you know ???? or think you know of at least two places.

When you dont know how many Steve has fitted :winky:

its interesting this one......
i've also wondered about the circa £800 fitting cost. I'm not in the position to say its a good or a bad price and my mechanical skills are poop. BUT, it does seem high in all honesty as i know its something that many people have done themselves and something that doesn't require overly specialist tools (apart maybe for the safety screws on ECU). The fact that other places can charge about 100-200 notes for fitting must resemble this factor?

At the end of the day, i enjoyed watching my s/c being fitted and Steve seemed like a genuine bloke and certainly knew what he was doing.

I believe TTE made about 70 of these units??? If so, Charlesworth have fitted about 1/3 of all production compressors!! That's some going.

Can i ask TDI a quick question......the s/c's you have for sale, have you many left in stock?? Also, do they come with the uprated spring etc etc? I ask on behalf of a mate who is interested ijn buying an IS, but wants an s/c on it ever since he saw mine

cheers

Well Rob, if its true about the 70 units ????

Steve has fitted more than 1/2 of them then :o

How do I know what? You have quoted several different issues. Some clarity would be helpful.

You know that I'm not impressed by willy waving because actions speak considerably louder than words, but if you want to challenge me (do you remember what happened when Prolex UK challenged me to publish an invoice?) I will trawl our records to see how many we have done over the years, and I'll ask TTE in Cologne if they have any similar records, if it's that important to you.

You will of course have to provide proof to substantiate your original claim.

Hi again Mark ,

I gather from Tony @WIM you have been away,welcome back !

from my post above.

I have an IS200SE Auto.

1 Do you sell the S/C as a parts only kit ?

2 If so what is the current cost for the full kit ? (instead of £2,200 parts only)

many thanks Mark
