I'm the one that backed out. First, this is not my first rodeo. I've owned 2 MAG supercharged cars and experienced (eventually) belt slip with a front drive 6 rib system. Upgrading the rear creates more slippage up front. Now granted it probably isn't as bad and will last longer on 8lbs but eventually will slip. Up the boost and it will slip for sure!

Now, my plan was to re-sell the car (if I was keeping it I would have probably still bought it). So let's break it down

1. Cost of car. Won't disclose.
2. Getting car back home $1300
3. Title register tax, $1400
4. 8 rib front drive with install $2000
5. Insurance and storage (assuming it doesn't sell right away) $700
6. Additional repair $800

This is what I estimate, may be lower for someone else.

Still a good deal but not an opportunity to sell at a profit. That's why I passed. I asked a head of time if it was 8, sorry that there was miscommunication.
