Re: ALL New Jet Central Turbine Line SP version

I haven't had one serviced yet Hans but, my understanding was that a 25 hr service was a flat rate $250 USD

Both of my Cheetahs have under 15hr on them... The upgrade price he quoted me to make them into SP versions was $1100 each or $2200 for both. I can't post the email because I deleted it the second after I read it, LOL

Seems the price varies, LOL!

Here's his email to me: I inquired about the SP upgrades on both engines as well as just upgrading the Cheetah to V10 ECU. BTW, I just noticed that the Cheetah upgrade @$1200 includes the service, the Rabbit does not.

Here are the options. . .

The Cheetah is: JF140-042 - First, upgrade to V10 ECU. Second, upgrade to PP and SP and include the 25hrs service.

PRICE TO PP AND SP UPGRADE INCLUDES SERVICE

$1200 - To upgrade to V10 is $250 plus service needed

The Rabbit 100 is: VT100-244 - Upgrade to SP - no service is scheduled at this time.

PRICE TO SP UPGRADE ( IT HAS TO BE UPGRADE TO PP FIRST)

$1200"

Hi Mike

Shouldn't be.

Maybe that's the cost for both not each? That he gave you.

Or when you mentioned bearings done, he could have included the $550 for the 25hr service ( bearings etc plus the $650 for adding new power pack and upgrading the thrust to SP)

That included the bearing change

You cannot upgrade to the new J200 Rhino as it is a bit bigger then the original Rhino

Wow Doug, that's a far cry from what he quoted me on mine. Is the Cheetah and Rabbit that much more?
I would've got it done for $650, $1200 wasn't worth it.
