YO fellas!

Happy to help where I can. When the OP approached me I thought he was speaking of the Inlet,s FMIC's etc. the hard stuff. But short shifters, rear bars, etc. I can likely do something with that, but I do need to clear it with my wholesale manager as I don't want to kill our AD's either.

PM me your wishes and I can see what GB we can do for you.

THANK YOU! I take this thread as a compliment to ALTA!

It is indeed a compliment to the great products you have.

Unfortunately the popularity and possible low production volume means higher prices and only those not concerned too much about pricing get to play now.

Personally I moved a bunch of $$ into my Paypal to get a bunch of mods (hiding from the wife ) such as IC, boost tubes, chip, intake etc but I can't currently justify the purchases at the current prices. Maybe I am being TOO cheap but even though I have the money I won't pay those prices, especially the CAI and silicon hoses which are 2x cost of those on VW GTI, Audi etc.

I also 100% respect your decision not to do GB on popular items you can't keep in stock as you have to make money to stay in business and continue to have great products.

So hopefully you can do a great discount on IC and/or silicon tubes etc.
I already made myself a CAI so if the discounts don't come soon I will just go get some SAMCO hoses and make my own boost tubes, grab the HELIX IC and go direct to Unichip and save myself $100's
