yea if i could find the info myself this would put tC's even further on the scale of the "ultimate inexpensive modable cars" IMO...the length of good aftermarket products of a car is just as much important as the quality of a car itself

THAT, is actually quite amusing considering we use a lot of the same materials. So I think someone is blowing smoke up your arss there bud. That comment just makes me laugh actually.
So unless you have heard it first hand, I would not believe everything you hear.
At first I didn't pay an attention to it, but then when it kept happening from different people and then it hit home when I heard it from a few that are actually pretty close to you guys. That when things changed.

And I hope with this comment you are not implying what I think you are:

There are lots of little comments you make that I would love to respond to but this one got my attention.

Edit: FYI- don't waste your time reverse engineering. Be original, be individualistic. We did not reverse engineer anybody's parts when making any of these turbo kits! Doing your own thing, progressing forward and never looking back is what it's all about
I have not copied anyone......I have been original. Nothing I do is anything close to what anyone has done for the Scion community.

But yet you offer the same thing as everyone else..........hmmm insteresting.

Even my log manifold is different.......

I didn't take your stuff apart to find out what you do so I can copy it, I take it apart so I can find out why it fails........................................................

I dont care anymore.....neither one of us is benefiting from this, and it gets to the point where our customers get involved and it turns into a "cheer" fest. (thank you all who have contributed...... )

Honestly it really doesnt matter if you think about. I just got upset and took it personally.

I have to many things going on to really care about what you guys say about me or my product.

I do my job you do yours.....the customers will choose what they want.

Like I originally said in the beginning....as long as they have boost and are happy with it is all that matters.



Im out........... and working on:

better lead times
customer response time

and maybe a website

Regards-

Your best bet is to junk yard a dsm turbo and piece it together. Cheap, fast, and not reliable!
