i have a used one, shipping would be astronomical, but you can have it for less than $500 if you take care of the shipping, as it's just sitting around useless to me...

I'm testing my aluminum one. Ian's has the C3 clearance bearings, they're tighter than Porsche specified and tend to fail prematurely from what I've been finding out. My tube uses off the shelf bearings with the correct C4 clearance and is 30% lighter than stock. Testing should be finished soon.
