1585, um, whats going on here? supercharger? Posted by cyan, May-06-01 03:56 PM
well apparently there is a supercharger for us out now, and its on ebay for $9.99 does the auction description seem just a little too shady for a brand new product no one seems to have heard of yet? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=586703063

I can't believe someone would bid $200+ for something with no real description or pictures or anything. Hell, I think I'll mount a fan in a PVC pipe and sell them on e-bay. Maybe call it the C-Ram. It would make a gawd-awful noise, so users would assume its working. I could probably pay for grad-school that way.

Some on dsmtalk.com did custom build one of these for a 1g, he posted complete pictures and everything, but last i heard he stripped the kit off and sold the car. Might be the same guy.

even if someone didnt know if a supercharger was available for their car, it says a wiring harness comes with the kit, not belts.

LAST EDITED ON 08-May-01 AT 11:24 AM (PST)Found a little info on this. I got this of DSM Talk in the non-turbo forum.
"ps. beware of a guy on ebay selling superchargers, he's selling them for just about every car you can imagine, but the catch is that he takes a spiral max, a computer fan and a peice of piping, puts it together and calls that a sc. right now he is ripping off so many people"
Makes you wonder why he has private feedback, 2 negatives and only 4 positives. Beware!! You guys were right.

I e-mailed this guy just to see what he could come up with. I said i was very interested and stuff like that. I asked every question i could and here is all that he e-mailed me:
comes ready to install with handtools minus the filter these are direct fit models.
That is it. I was going to start a fraud investigation but, it is a pain in the butt to do on ebay. The auction ends in 3 hours and is up to $500+. The guy that buys it is going to be so pissed!

1597, RE: um, whats going on here? supercharger? Posted by 96NOS_Eclipse, May-08-01 06:05 PM
He is selling a "supercharger" for just about any car imagineable. I emailed him too and got nothing but a run around also emailed ebay. Here is what I think he is really selling http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=586417240

people need to get some sense, hmmm, lets see a super charger for $500, when they usually go for over 3000. has any1 read his "about me thing"? he's making them private cause he thinks that way no one can investigate.

That user won't be selling anything under that username for quite awhile. This is a reply I got from ebay yesterday as to the fate of that user. A bunch of N/T people from DSM Talk also wrote to ebay about it.
"Hello, Thank you for writing to eBay. I appreciate the time you took out of your day to bring this information to my attention. I understand how this situation could be of some concern.
The member reported "lovints" has been suspended from further site usage. I appreciate you bringing this account to our attention.
We wish you a continued successful relationship with us, and we would also like to thank you for being an asset to the eBay trading community!
Regards, Jordon eBay Community Watch Team"
