You can get a blower and the lower intake for fairly cheap ~500 for a used SVT one then you just have to get the other few parts and a tune, that's the expensive part.

How many bolts total are in the lower and mid plate? Working a deal on a hardware pack and want to be sure everything is there.

I really do... I'm seriously thinking about buying a blower instead of a body lift after I get tires. Then just setting it off to the side until I get all the parts. I already have a X3 and I think fist m tune from MPT for a blown engine run around 400.
