humm that supercharger on ebay... i sent an email asking if i can view the kit before buying / paying and also to confirm the milage... this is the reply i got !! Good evening,

This was purchased by myself 5 months
ago with intention to really make my car rip. However I now have a little
daughter and have purchased another car and there is no need to have a race
car (today). This is a complete setup, only 4000 miles used. This is not a
cheap Cosmetic piece that makes noise and looks cool. This supercharger
makes SERIOUS power! Installation may take around 8 or 10 hours. It is
complete and ready to install but i strongly advise you to use a
professioal mechanic. The person doing the installation should be familiar
with supercharging fundamentals and have a good mechanical aptitude. I will
include some instructions and outline. The lowest price that i can accept
is

This Ebay scammer appears quite regularly. Myself and a few others used to report the ad as soon as it appeared, but someone was always likely to get caught

The zero feedback and private bidding is a dead give away.

I have just called the number for you. It is not a real number, just an automated ringing tone with an answer machine message.

I hope you manage to sort this out. I hate thieving, scamming scum.
