Im thinkin about bidding on this FMU, which is advertised as being a vortech 12:1... when compared to every other vortech Ive seen, it looks exactly the same EXCEPT vortech usually has a V that said vortech on it... is it a ripoff? Let me know ASAP! auction ends in 8 hours!

well if its a genuine paxton then yes its a vortech they use vortech fmu's for the paxton supercharger
they just dont stamp the name on them as most turbo kits dont have names on the parts in the kit
