"All parts are currently installed and are to be swapped at Street Performance, on your dollar" - is this my lack of knowledge in the english language? The way i understand it is that the pricing doesnt includ removal.

I read the ad the same way. Cost is listed price plus removal at street performance.

That isn't unreasonable if the price is good... When I sold my old mazdaspeed accessory exhaust it was price + removal, and I had people lining up.
But his price is only "ok" based on the individual item prices. Now I'm certainly no expert, but an accessport V3 does not cost $900. I'm pretty sure I see accessports selling all the time in the 300-400$ range, and cobbs website lists it new as 650. This guy is just a dumbass.... or an a-hole preying on dumbasses.

I know but your whole thread was based on the fact that you have to pay to have the parts swapped, but the part you want doesn't need to be professionally swapped....

Yeah but the sad part is that he isnt parting out. He wants to sell it as a package.

but you're posting on TM3 about mods which could impact the life of your clutch...

dealers read these posts too, I personally would find a way to void your warranty

A brand new accessport V3 is 650 USD. Convert that to Canadian and add tax and shipping and you're looking at well over $900. You can get half the cost of the AP back if you trade in a V2 with cable for the same car.

Oh, I thought I was looking at CAD because i seached for accessport v3 canada., my bad. That is crazy expensive!
Also, interesting re: the trade in program. I was wondering what COBB would get out of that, and I just realized, probably just so they make more sales, as there would be less used V2s floating around on the market to kill their v3 sales. Smart.

Touge Tuning in Sauga has them for around 650-700+tax CAD. I bought mine there back in August 2015. One of the best prices around if buying new. Good luck !
