I have the "whole" kit sitting in a closet at my house if you want it... that is hopefully after the police finally get around to taking it as evidence.

I was wondering. Are there still people out there looking to install a supercharger kit in the old C4 2.8L 12v V6 Audis? I'm doing a market study.

You're probably better off starting your own thread with that question.
There's a lot of bad blood over the mythical Motodyne one.

And perhaps you could introduce yourself and explain your interest in potential markets for superchargers...

There may be a market, but not at the $6k+ PES charges.
The 12V is a dying breed, moreso in the 'States than here in Australia.
But even here they're becoming less common. England has a little revival going with some late model 80s and early A4s judging by the forums there.

I would have been interested maybe 4-5 years ago, but I'm looking the let the old girl go now!

Thanks.

I will start a new thread. Yes, I know about the Motodyne mythical kit. What a shame it wasn't real. Whoever this character is, he could have had a legitimate busines. Yes, I'm aware the 12v V6 Audis and many are being retired. That's why I inquired.

As you recommend, I will explain in a new thread what my interests are in this. Your comments are much appreciated.

Regards.
