Default Downing Atlanta Super Charger on BF.com

Hey guys, i found someone selling a DA supercharger for a M42 ... says it can be for a M44 as well but by the looks of it it seems like it came from a E30 M42. Guy is selling it for $1500... someone should jump on it.

It's not a complete kit and it looks like it was cut out of a car, perhaps from a junkyard, so the guy may be blowing smoke when he says it only has 9500 miles on it. Figure you'd probably want to get it rebuilt by DA and need to purchase the rest of the kit as well as software, you're looking at atleast $2500, probably closer to 3k.

That is a old DASC for sure, 9K miles on it I highly doubt and if it has that low of miles it is weathered so bad it was not on a shelf collecting dust. Lots of parts missing too as Jess said looks like it was cut out of a car (dude remove the cut cables and crap, plus clean it up if your going to claim it's low miles and all.

Ok: $1,500 for DASC. $750 for Magnuson to rebuild. DA parts kit to match SC to your car ??? Unknown but most likely a lot or money (All brackets, idlers, supports, fuel line, regulator mount, etc, RRFPR regulator or software plus who knows what else). If SC has been run with a bad bearing and the rotor tapped the SC case then the SC is junk and you got good DASC intake manifold for $1,500

With the above pricing you would be into this a little more then it is most likely worth. I sold my DASC complete kit with 3 pullies for $2,200. Supercharger was in excellent condition so no rebuild needed for at least another 50K-75K miles. My DASC had the snout mod so it could accept pullies as small at 2.8" too...I would not pay more then $3,000 for a DASC and that would be a kit that was new and never installed. Just my opinion and thoughts on these.

Turbos can be purchased for $1,100-$2,200 and give you 20%-40% more power per psi since your motor is not wasting power to turn the SC. They are a little harder to install but much more fun, my opinion. Just a thought...

Don't mean to crap on someones dream of a good deal or the DASC but my opinion is it really isn't a good deal after you pay to get all the parts to put it together. Also the mileage listed is shady so that would make me think the person is dis-honest and not someone I would want to do a deal with...

Yup, you guys are right as usual. I send him an email and he told me that he traded all other parts(yeah whatever) and this is all he has. For a sec I was thinking that I will start swimming with the FI sharks for less, but may be next time
