Seen the new "new" billet tensioner?

[thadeal4real]

the one without the pulley is down to 250 they both look similar though I wonder if its the same part

 

[thadeal4real]

maybe a little confusion on the links on my part this might help clear it up I think these are the two different types

The one for $275.00 looks identical to the one 40 plus guys on this site paid almost $500 bucks for in the group buy.

 

[turboclam]

Yep, same one.

Wow the price dropped that much??

Yep, same one.

Its the same one....was supposed to be a limited run which is why I bought in on the group buy. I Paid $480 complete with the pulley.....basically the heavy billet pulley on mine is worth the $205.00 difference... lol I swapped mine out for the lighter RJC unit off my old tensioner. If anybody is interested I will sell the billet pulley it comes with at half price for $99.00

Looks like half price on your pulley would actually be $12.50 . . . Lol.

I'll take $12.50 plus shipping and 3% paypal fees! lol

I would feel guilty buying it that cheap . . . $12.50 plus .38 cents and shipping? Wait a minute, is shipping going to be $78.00?

I'm not amused by what looks like the same "short run" part being offered now for over 40% less. It's good to see an alternative to the factory part, just didn't know I was paying for quite a bit more than the tensioner. Lots more a guy could say about it but...another lesson learned. Pass me a beer!
