I sell some of his stuff, and it is nice, but often times he makes to order, and it can take forever to get stuff. Worth the wait, though.....
I MIGHT be able to price match, depending on what kind of discount he is willing to give me....

Wow!! I didn't expect expect so many of you guys to like this part! but good! better price..? how could anyone say no right? I need -10 an fittings and polished. The price I got quoted shipped to UPS store in ogdensburgh is $245 USD. it's a PITA to get it, unless I'm there picking up other sh!t too. Ziggy, keep us posted edit: i'm hoping to mount this can in place of my cruise control unit, which has been deleted for quite some time now.

1. Mike Eng (-10an, polished) 2. Andrew Trapp ? 3. Kyle Guba ? 4. Jason Drew ? 5.

Or just have a Frontline Fab group buy, since he makes so many other useful products. Diff covers, valve covers, shields/guards, etc...
All the stuff is made to order, so the discount is going to be based on the fact that we're buying a large quantity of stuff, rather than what we're buying.

Discount is going to depend on pricing he is willing to give me based on what we buy, and a BIG part of the savings will be the combined shipping on the inbound freight. You are correct, though, there is no need to limit it to the catch cans. If there is interest in any other FF product, let's get him a list and see what he can offer us..
I have already asked for pricing on his catch cans, but let's see what interest there is before asking him to quote too many different ways. Not sure if finish and size changes the pricing on his catch cans? If so, it WOULD be useful to know up front. If it doesn't change pricing, we don't need to worry about it until we are ready to order.

Salomon, what kind of 1g stuff do they have? The site is pretty lacking in that section.

OK, I hadn't noticed that. He did respond and ask whether I was eferring to 2g catch cans, so maybe he makes one for 1g as well? I asked what else he offers, but he only mentioned machined valve covers (he sent a pic, looks gorgeous, but I am guessing it would be VERY expensive) and a transfer case brace, plus the diff covers (which he now has an EVO version for).
That being said, it probably IS best if we have all the info up front. This is one of those catch 22 situations, where no-one wants to commit without knowing a price, and I can't get an ACCURATE price without knowing who wants what. I would say base your decision on willingness to pay pretty much retail, plus shipping from me to you and taxes, but no inbound freight or brokerage. I can PROBABLY do slightly better, but that will be determined when the order is finalized. Please put your name down only if you are PROBABLY willing to go that high. I realize some people will drop out last minute, which is why I can't give a final price until last minute. I will probably want a deposit at the time of placing the order, and payment in full before I ship to you.
That having been said, let's get a list going with EXACTLY what is wanted:
WHO - WHAT - OPTIONS
1. Mike Eng -2g catch can, -10an, polished VENTED OR RECIRC??? DUAL PORTS?? 2. Andrew Trapp -2g catch can, -10an, powdercoated, dual inlets, vented
3. Kyle Guba ? 4. Jason Drew ? 5. Pedro Suarez

Kyle, can you please include all the specs from his site (including any options) for what you are interested in, both the catch can and the coolant overflow? I will not be holding anyone to this until I am able to get a better handle on pricing, but still need to know WHAT it is we want when I go to negotiate the price...

Pedro you need to figure out what fittings, finish and vented or recirculated.
Ziggy - do you guys carry those K&N replacement filters for the vented cans? If so, what are they worth?
