    Do a search for Alpine, they are the only company that produced off the shelf superchargers for the VX. Do a bit of reading and you'll discover that they do not exist, and your only options are to buy one for serious $$$ of an existing owner, buy a VX that has one just for the parts, or wait (apparently) forever on Alpine to start producing them again.

    Sorry to disappoint.

    I thought there was a member from Michigan, who was going to sell his SC VX for about 5 grand. The SC was $3500 new just for the part, not including installation. You may want to contact him and see if he would sell it separate, or buy it whole and part it out. Good luck to you, there are a lot of people looking for the same thing.

    Dude that is a sweet ride, he has a number of cool mods on there, although I'm not feeling the discolored soda straw rear view camera. Wonder if he would be willing to part the super charger? Only thing that concerns me is the rust you can see on the bolts in the front part of the engine bay. But the supercharger components are all on the top of the engine right?

    If you check the "free history report" on the seller ebay listing , you can see tis vx has 2 Accident record(s) reported through accident data sources .

    Agreed, but he does have it for sale at no reserve to make up for it. If you could pick this up for < $5-6K I think you'd be getting a steal (considering you could probably sell the supercharger for $2K+ if you didn't want it).

    Holy h3ll, just noticed that there are 15 bids, 5 of those since I first looked only 3 hours ago, and there's still 6+ days left!
