no known difference between the reg and the remix blitz fmic, guessing the remix is just the newer version

This is about the cheapest place I have found $1266 http://www.mvpmotorsports.com/Templa...178&SearchYN=N

I have had several customers buy Blitz kits from this site recently and they have shown up much quicker then the Greddy's that have been ordered from other stores.

If interested I have about 10 of the Greddy FMIC in stock. Blitz is nice but not worth $1300.

Last time I've heard there were zero Blitz FMIC. I was told by blitz they had 2 left, i bought one and someone else bought one. Of course this was about 6 months ago.

I've got this FMIC and it drops the temp like a rock. After a hard drive even on a very hot day I can pop the bonnet and feel the two pipes running to and from the intercooler and the difference is amazing.

Also it doesn't entirely block the radiator like other front mounts so I've never ever had an issue with the car overheating on a stock rad.

Triming the bumper for the Greddy is not hard to do. It really comes down to if you want to spend that much on a FMIC. For the price of the Blitz you could get a Greddy FMIC, HKS Twin Power and Koyo radiator. The Blitz isnt any better than the Greddy.

Of the 100 Greddys we have installed not one has had an overheating issue, so that shouldnt be a concern.

Any idea when the Blitz will be back in stock? I've heard it sits more back so is more hidden as well. Also the plus to that is the air travels straight to the rad since its right up against it. I have a Koyo rad if that matters.

Since your in here Jason I'll ask, I've never ordered from rx7store is it possible to ship via USPS instead of UPS (broker fees are retarded with UPS)? Also, is the Racing Beat dual-tip in stock? Is Paypal accepted as a payment medium (I have a method to send with zero fee's, and no its not e-check, its a business thing)? Been meaning to ask these questions lol.

I personally love my blitz, the install was an absolute breeze.

Like Phil mentioned, I was told by a reputable wholesaler (who many of the rx7 shops buy their blitz line from) that the fmic is discontinued, this was way back in January.

I was told I bought one of the last 2 in North America. I was also told that they were discontinued.

i think they should mass produce these so the price drops some. this has to be one of my fav fmic's. $1300 is too steep for me, i already think the greddys are alot being 800+
