mellonman Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 how much did it set you back and whats the import duty like on them out for curiousity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony tt Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 how much did it set you back and whats the import duty like on them out for curiousity? Without a working gearbox to send them it's $2580 then about $600 to $800 for shipping. Don't know about customs charges yet. If you send a working gearbox it's $1980 for the box minus shipping.

Style Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 You'll be about 20% of the price you paid for the box I think. May want about 500 bucks off you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoke to Lee he reckoned stage 4. 3k plus vat plus having to get the car 500 miles down to Lee. Even with shipping the boostlogic was a cheaper route. Shipped for about £2600 for the logic box. All came down to cost and convenience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Stage 3 would have been equivalent to the boost logic box if not better. I could have sent you a box on exchange basis no need to come here. I'm surprised myself you went for a new boost logic as you said you was going to try and find a used one. Hope it works out for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_ufo Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Hi Lee, what power can a stage 3 handle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee P Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Hi Lee, what power can a stage 3 handle? We don't really have power limits on them as it's more to do with usage and we havnt had a failure yet. The stock box will do 600hp, we have only had one stock box failure on one of our cars and that car was being tracked and around 650hp Stage 2 and 3 both have uprated clutch packs and uprated line pressure to deal with more power. The stage 4 has billet sprag and other billet parts to prevent breakage during gear change and even higher power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it works out for you. That's my failing Lee I didn't realise you could have sent a box up. I thought I had to send mine down to be built and the car left in a garage taking up space till it came back. Ah well it's done now. Thanks anyway Lee.

tony tt Posted May 26, 2015 Author Share Posted May 26, 2015 Well 10 weeks in from order at MVP and still waiting on Boostlogic getting their arse in gear to finish my box. Unbelievable never again. With any luck I'll get some news it's completed this week. So much for 2 to 3 weeks to build it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
