I'm just gonna...do it. I mean, she can't tell me no if I don't tell her what I'm up to. I'll just pay the bill and she'll see it on the statement and I'll tell her "well that's what stuff costs on an old car...." She won't know any better.

I'm pretty sure Marcellus recommended the Borgeson unit as well so it seems like it comes pretty highly recommended. I was thinking of going DSE or the Delphi 600 that Rick's Camaro sells (think that's what I'd stumbled onto a couple years back) but i'll definitely circle back on the Borgeson.
I just called Aldan American. Yes, they will take your order if you call them. Otherwise they direct you to Summit/Jegs because it's cheaper.

And man, regarding the wife thing, i have a funny story:

So a few years back, this guy calls me up. For about a week or two we go over suspension options, estimates etc. We've settled in on about $10K worth of suspension/brakes for his Mustang.

He's finally ready to pull the trigger so calls me up to finalize the order. But this time, he's whispering over the phone.

He tells me that we have to do this quickly, as his wife is home and doesn't want her to find out. Apparently he's in the room upstairs trying to get the order placed.

So he's giving me the card info and then next you know someone else picks up the other line. It's his wife! Oh man all hell breaks lose. She's givin' him "the business" over his "stupid car" blah blah blah . Next thing ya know, click. I get hung up on.

The very next day he calls me back, this time from work and we finish the order. But we're going to make sure everything is shipped to his work address, work email, work phone number etc . Wife still can't know about it, but damnit he's getting his front and rear coil over kit, big brakes, rack etc.
