Lol I thought it was a little funny. Supercharger may be more of a hard head approach for power but nothing good comes easy

 

A properly built TVS car is nothing to be ashamed of....

I would put one up against a lot of the turbo cars on this site.

 

well, I'm more into road coarse racing......and a supercharger build is ideal IMO. Plus I think they are fun.

Don't get me wrong, I've owned turbo cars....and I love them too. I just think it's lame to not support one or the other by saying it's a waste of money. But whatever

 

Maybe when we get our tvs's and builds done we can have a good ole boost rumble

 

When I had the TVS on my car when I was testing for Harrop, I was neck and neck with my buddies Rebel turbo cobalt. I know it was a long time ago with the rebel reference haha.

 

Agreed.

 

Well if zzp did support the tvs... Idk if josh would be doing this group buy... So I guess it works out

 

I most definitely loved my TVS. If I had access to E85 I'd probably still have it.

 

I would have loved to have your exact tvs setup.

 

For that person thinking they will get a TVS for $1800 new, keep dreaming. I was offered one from Harrop themselves for $1850, I would then have to consider shipping. I sure do miss my TVS and if I had the funds I would purchase one again but right now it isn't wise for me to spend $2k when I have other things in life to spend money on... ugh, the temptation though.

Would you take a Civic in on trade? LOL!

 

you live across the border right? thats why shipping is horrible for you. granted it wont be cheap shipping, but I work shipping for a company and ive seen large heavy boxes shipped at a decent price.

 

200 dollars fedex freight direct from Harrop. I have purchased a number of them, very good people to deal with , and an excellent product. DarkChild is absolutely correct. Nothing to do with Canada or USA making a difference. Shipping is shipping.

 

My trade offer is still on the table though... LOL! I'll take a TVS over a Civic ANYDAY!

(Clearly I'm just kidding, before this thread escalates)

 

I stand corrected. in that case, ship them all to me and ill ship them for under $50 each, I believe. depending on the exact weight of it lol.

 

TVS is good.

 

josh does harrop even still make TVS blowers for the cobalt? I thought that was the reason ZZP started development of the lysholm conversion.

 

Zzp never started anything ... Its an old rebel kit they ended up with.

Someone must be making the 1320 cuz he cant just pull them outta his ass lol

 

well harrop was making them, but i thought they discontinued the lineup with the discontinuation of the LSJ lol

 

Harrop only had two on the shelf when I last purchased from them in the fall. They were keen to do another run if I wanted to sign up. I wasnt prepared to do that, its a big investment,and I choose not to do buys financed on deposits from customers.

Harrop are a serious engineering firm with good capacity.

 

its ashame their prices arent more reasonable to their eaton counterparts, they probably would sell alot more of them. I know id go as far as charging one of them to a credit card if they were reasonably priced, but the 2000+ price tag vs the 800 dollar M62 makes them terrible if you look at price vs performance gained. I got my M62 for 215 bucks as well in great condition.

 

the reason for the price tag is because its aftermarket vs production. the cobalt m62 was designed and built with gm covering the costs, and 10,000+ were made. yes, you can get a new m62 for $800ish because of this. the harrop costs what it does because all the R&D and tooling is getting covered on, what, realistically less than 1000 units. its just mass production, the more they make the cheaper they can be.

 

I got mine for 1800 nib, when they first came out too! Pays to order a ton of ****

 

Today is the day! I will have everything setup in a few hours.

 

yes! Yes! Yes!

 

Excellent!
