Yep, my P-1SC-1 was only $3200 with boost gauge, 3 gauge A-pillar, 42 lb injectors, and fuel pump! Plus it had only been used for 1200 miles!

The only thing with buying used supercharger kits is all the horror stories about missing parts, damaged parts, and not getting what you thought you paid for. Then you have to deal with the seller online, over the phone, etc. Its just too much of a hassle if something goes wrong - is it the seller's fault, is it UPS's fault? etc, etc. There have been a few stories even in this forum on that sort of stuff. Not worth taking the chance in my opinion.
