You could do a budget turbo conversion for that money!

Things like that always look like money laundering to me.

£7k for that system doesn't sound too bad. Keep in mind, E92 M3 is not an E30, so you can't get a Scorpion backbox for 50 quid lol

To OP, if you click on "3 sold" on eBay, you'll see that previously the kit was sold for £9.99, so clearly it's a mistake in the current listing.

The question we all should be asking is why you were searching for silly induction kits on eBay? :D

Looks like they are doing the common practice of listing more than they have, then raising the price really high when they are out of stock - saves on listing fees.

And is someone is stupid enough to buy, well you can bet they manage to find stock!
