Anyone who is an approved DiabloSport retailer...please post up your best OTD deal on a Predator for the SRT8.

I know you have a set price for the Predator alone...appears to be around $375. I expect all of you to give me that same price. What I'm looking for is to see who is giving the best deal on the USB interface kit and shipping.

Here's what I'm looking for:
-Predator price = $$$
-USB interface kit price = $$$
-Shipping and handling price = $$$
-OTD price = $$$
-websited to order from

I'll be buying one in the near future. I want to support a vendor of the forum, but also want the best price available.

Thanks for looking,
Keith

MarylandSpeed was offering a deal with the Diablo and a CAI. Hopefully they chime in soon.

Here's a package deal that I couldn't pass up:

Sure, it has a CAI and 180 t-stat thrown in for about $200 more, but I was going that way eventually, so I couldn't resist.

Just something to think about if your budget can handle it. The CAI changed my engine and exhaust sound completely!!! (the sound of cylinders firing and the air being inhaled is awesome) Also, the 180 t-stat keeps your engine cooler - so it will last longer!!! (and push a little more horsepower).

Just sayin' - but if the Diablo is your primary target (w/ cable, which is a gotta have, believe me...) then look for deals (especially group-buys in lxforums, chargerforums, and chargerz forums) through HHP, PPP, and MarylandSpeed. They seem to be offering good deals. There are some others, but those are the first that come to mind. I've had good dealings with all 3.

Maryland speed posted the reason for this a little while back. Diablo made all of its authorized retailers set their prices to $375. Any dealer caught selling for any other price gets there authorized dealer status revoked. The only way you will find a deal on these now is to get them in a package deal with CAI or exhaust etc so that there is no actual set price on any of the individual pieces.

The $375 from either of these vendors is a good deal with the cables and free shipping. Enjoy.

That is basically what we do here-
http://marylandspeed.com/computer-ecm-marylandspeed-power-packs-c-280_688_818.html

Remember..everything has a cost, and we do pay for the cables (about $30 our cost). You can only squeeze and orange so much.

If you buy just the Predator, the cables are free because we have the margin to absorb it at Diablo's set $375 price.

When we make a package however with an intake, we don't have to follow their pricing guidlines, so we make the Predator and intake as cheap as possible. Then if you want an interface kit...we do charge $30for it with the package because the package price does not have the margin to eat a $30 kit also. I could advertise the package with free wires, but I would have to raise the price of the package $30 to have the margin to do it.

Why can't vendors offer a package that includes the predator, CAI, and free cables? That's basically what people want.

Lots of vendors off the predator with free cables but without the intake.

Give the people what they want.

One day sell

What would steel the competition is if any of the supporting vendor can have a one day sell which includes:

1. AFE stage 2 CAI
2. Predator WITH cables
3. FREE SHIPPING
3.T-stat (optional)


The first 3 are the main things. Have it set to a total package price from $500 to $530 tops. Do we have a deal?

Only if the salvation army, goodwill, or some other charity that does not have to make a profit starts selling car parts;)

If we could sell that cheap and make money we could...but for anything less than the website sale prices we have now, it is just not worth our time. It would be like your boss saying..."Yeah I will give you all the overtime you want if you work it for $5 an hour". If your not making money, stealing sales from the competition makes no sense.

Keep in mind also, when you buy from us, you are buying from a real company, with real support...not some guy selling Predators in his boxers for beer money.

What would steel the competition is if any of the supporting vendor can have a one day sell which includes:

1. AFE stage 2 CAI
