Default LPE wait time ?

What's the wait time right now - to get a vehicle into LPE for an SC install ? Their webpage is being redone, I can't get to anything there.

Glad to see you're looking in(at least I hope so) to LPE!

A nice magnacharger would really make that z06 talk.

[EDIT] My car was there last year for some calibration work, it took three months. Initially the 383 took almost six months. If you send it soon, you might see it in time for when the air gets good! well worth it of course.

I would love to get the new supercharger package from LPE. Too bad I don't have an extra $8500 laying around. :D

I just called. Tim said late June delivery for kit installed or just the kit. I think it is :bs

They are still on the first four and they have 40+ waiting.

That's exactly why it's :bs . I'd say 4-6 months would be realistic.

I was at the LPE tour on Saturday and the guy said that they have 56 SC packages backordered right now. I guess they just hold the cars in a warehouse on the other side of town until they're ready to work on them. Maybe he'll let you order and keep your car until he's ready to do the work?

i would think with a wait list that long, that to get on now would mean a fall delivery at the earliest.
