Exclamation Blitz Supercharger £4,272.92 in UK!?

http://www.blitzshop.co.uk/c6985.htm

http://www.blitzshop.co.uk/product_i...cts_id=1626015

here are two links to the Blitz supercharger currently on sale in the U.K. My question to all of you is why it is not for sale state side yet? it is pricey and the only problem i might see is the JDM ECU...whether or not it's compatible with the US market. let me know what you guys think.

People have been asking this same question for over a year now. No apparent answer. Call them up and see why.

£4,272.92! no suprises really i suppose, the uk gets raped horribly on prices for tuning parts; we also seem to have the highest running costs, insurance premiums and new car prices. then we have the speed/cash cameras (recentley read an article where there is somewhere in the contract between the camera companys and the government that implies that all the money goes straight into the treasurey; meaning it'll pretty much never gonna help improve road conditions, something we were promised but again didnt happen).
i know im ranting and people will express their views but im just getting really smegged off with how motorists are treated in the UK so please dont burn me too much. (im also in a bit of a nark at the moment courtesy of university lecturers who give little or no help at all when we have assignments to do and have very little info to go on for what we need to do )

but it doesnt work on US Spec cars. mostly due to the ECU we got. its not the same as the most of the world (Thx to EPA)

anyway, i think this thing is ok, if its about 4K. anything above that. I would rather spend double and get triple of the perforamce from Mazsport kit.
