FS: JCW MINI Cooper S Engine Performance Kit

I have a complete John Cooper Works MINI Cooper S engine performance kit for sale, comprising supercharger, exhaust, head, plugs, badges, etc. It is brand new, never installed. Have a MINI dealer install the kit to protect your warranty, or have your race mechanic do it. This kit is SCCA legal for T3 class. JCW claims 210 hp. Packed in 3 cartons. I'm asking $3,795 plus ground shipping.

PM if you have any questions or are interested.

Michael

Sounds like someone bought the Turner kit and is reselling for a fast $1000.00

Your right. I was thinking of buying the kit for the same reason to have a head built. Superchager would be nice to send to Endyn or Stiegemeir to have a little porting done.

Nice try, mgoulde. We all saw the same ad. Go peddle your stuff on Ebay.
(and I hope you lose your ***! I HATE speculators!)

Haha wow - I'm all for enterprising ventures, but selling on a COMMUNITY like this should be offering the chance of a good deal to your other "friends" on the forum

I didn't think I was trying to be deceptive. Yes, I bought the kit from Turner and I'm trying to make a reasonable profit to help fund my 2007 racing season. If I still have it in the spring I'll part it out.

You guys kill me, leave the poor guy alone. lol It makes me scared to sell on this site any more in fear of being lynched!

I would have bought it from him a year ago at that price if it included everything, no matter what he paid for it. Who knows, maybe he is TMS. I'm all for buying/selling, I do it every day in business, so, I say more power to him. If I don't likey the pricey, I don't buy. :-) But, I don't cut his nuts off for offering something that I might feel is overpriced(not that this is). :-)

Oasis, I'm with you. If someone doesn't like what they see go on to something else...

Do the math over dude.

And if you guys don't want it, I'll save it for my T3 National Runoffs campaign in 201X.

+1 !

I'd like to see the Marketplace forum's moderated. Only the seller may post, and the postng has to pass the moderator's scrutiny before becoming visible. All responses (including this one ) would have to be done by PM or EM.

nothing to fear if an item is priced FAIRLY

Im sorry but this is about the best example of why they should NOT be moderated. I am all for the FREE market and that works BOTH ways. This should never be a place where people are taken advantage of because TRUTH is embargoed by moderators!

There is nothing wrong with finding a deal to buy to resale and make money.....But take that to ebay, dont take advantage of your friends (i.e. MINI community) The marketplace forum is a FORUM.....where people are allowed to warn other friends and community members that an item is NOT a good deal.......Go find your suckers on ebay
