Default Blackwing wanted

Anyone know where I can get onefor under $200, the lowest I've seen is $215.
Not much more, but why pay more if you don't have to.

TIA,
Gordon. :steering:

If you are not in a hurry to get one, keep an eye on Ebay.

I just bought mine on Saturday for 189.99 with free shipping, free adapter and no tax.

Check out c5 performance.com. His name is steve. He gave me a good price, $239.00 w/adapter. Remember, $215.00, make sure it includes the adapter or you will not be able to install :nonod:

I'll sell you mine. I had it about a year before I switched to ATI. I bought the cleaner kit, also but never used it. I'll include it. How about $150 and you pay shipping. It's just sitting on the shelf in the garage.

Got mine from Ebay $185 shipped w/ the adapter. But I rather pay alittle extra and get it from the supporting vendors though, that way you get great service and warranty and all that good stuff :)

I found this ad on corvette trader. I bought one several months ago and i received everything brand new and quick shipping. I don't know if this guy still has any left but it might be worth while to check.
http://www.corvettetrader.com/_disc9/0000011a.htm
Price is $155 Includes filter, cleaner, and Z06 adapter if needed. This is a steal. Adds 18+ horsepower to any 1997-2003 Corvette. Will work on Z06's as well. Give me a call 832-385-1789

Shipping/Insurance is $15
