if this is a legit group buy you should have gotten a price for the given amount of people they said they needed to make it happen, why keep it a secret, just post it up, more people will be able to give a definite answer.[confused]

so its gonna take 8 to 10 weeks to get this?? wtf?! what if we get 10 people by the end of next week??? and do you need my credit card # ten weeks before I can get the product, and if so, can you just count me in instead of getting a $775 charge when Im not expecting it, that may not go over too well. and does this include shipping or what???

It gives more surface area for cooling and lowers temps. This is for forced induction though, for A4's the older S4's which have turbos. Looking at your garage, a 25th edition S4 doesnt need one though. Good job on the price though, this looks pretty tempting

Will you notify us about a week before you charge our credit cards? After 8-10 weeks I would almost forget about the order.
This would put shipping between July 1-15, right?

Go to the 2nd post down and read the Intercooler section.
B6 A4 Ultimate Modification Information Thread. A must read! (http://audizine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=102671)
Here. I did it for you:
Racetec FMIC ~
-Bar/Plate intercooler with polished cast aluminum end tanks.
-Powder coated mounting bracket.
-Scotch Brite mandrel bent aluminum tubes
-Bar/Plate intercooler with 16 Charge rows for ultimate cooling efficiency,thermal reserves and flow rate.
-Cast Aluminum end tanks for smooth airflow and even air distribution.
-Designed to fit the OEM and Supersport front bumper without any cutting.
-Intercooler can be inverted to accommodate a larger front facia such as ABT, Kerscher, etc.
-A drop down bracket is included if specified at initial purchase.
Its also listed on the SPP website:

well i am actually interested but they wanted a cashier's order in USD for overseas buyers which makes it extremely inconveinient for me. I made offers for paypal payment or visa and told them to let the payment clear or once paypal amount has been recieved then ship out the FMIC but they declined my offer.

You may pay them by wire bank transfer - that is what I do. It is actually more convinient (not to mention more secure) than sending your visa details.

Euro-Tuner
05-22-2007, 06:19 AM
from my understanding, that is the normal bracket, I thought there was a drop down bracket that allowed the intercooler to sit lower than that for aftermarket bumpers. I may be wrong though.

just got off the phone with Shaun from supremepower.com (International Call) they've already passed 20 BUT apprarently no price drop! and from what i heard is that it'll be fast approaching 30 now.
And from what i heard from Shaun over the phone was that when it reaches 30, the price would only drop to $750! $25 savings * thought it would have been at least another $50 savings* or at least drop the price to $700 when it hits 30.

dougyfresh
05-24-2007, 08:49 AM
The original price was $775 for 10+ people.
I want to guess we'd be at $725 for 30+ people? Can it go down to $700 at 30+? That would be nice and it sound like $700 would attract a whole lot more people.

We shipped B5 Cable Cars and a majority of the B6 orders before I left about a week ago.
Will let you guys know whats going on. We shipped everything we could instead of holding onto to the entire batch and making everyone wait. I know some of you are frustrated but I would like to thank you for your patience.
Expect to get calls or emails from Sean or myself as soon as more information becomes available
