I just ordered one on ebay. Type in air pump eliminator as an ebay search. I purchased a chrome unit for 179.95 inc. shipping. The company is supernatural performance.

Got mine from Dragon's Breath Performance (for the L98). Go here https://home.comcast.net/~dragonbreathe/ and look under "specials". Bob is a good guy to deal with.


Here it is installed on my 91:

Got mine from a fellow forum member who was making them for awhile. Check the parts section & do a search or ask on there.

1998 roadster, how did it work out? Was the company good to work with? How was fit and finish?


Thanks for everyone who is responding. I love this board and feel fortunate to have stumbled across it.

I called Bob about that because my 91 is not listed either. He said that as long as it was an L98 it would work. I've had mine on for almost a year and have had no issues at all. I'd give him a call and check beforehand.

The one I orderd on ebay worked great. Comes with everything you need. Good tech support as well.

I'd be willing to pay for it. Especially if he fabbed up a rear alt bracket for use with headers and threw it in the deal.
