Title: 1zz Apexi Power FC, Cheapest place to buy?
Post by: Ilogik on March 3, 2009, 20:00
So far JPS  or RHD japan seem the cheapest, 720 delivered from RHD.

Any other locations?

I was quoted £1175 mapped and fitted for brand new one locally. Would you say that is a good deal?

 s8) 8) s8)  just to make it worse by 2nd hand I mean bought but never fitted.   s:cry: :cry: s:cry:  

Is JPS on Ebay? I think that is the cheapest I've ever seen them going for new. At the time it was around £649 iirc. I believe Noble Motorsports will fit and tune PFC for £500. So £1175 doesn't seem to be such a bad deal. You could get cheaper, but not by much, and if it's a good tune your sorted. From what I've heard Noble are one of the best.

MWR are selling it for $895 with commander. Obviously there's import duty and shipping on top of that.

spotted mwr really depends on the price of postage. Wonder if they would do a deal on the crower cams and apexi together.
