People spend money on all sorts of mods that cannot show gains on a dyno: lightweight flywheels, lightweight pulleys, carbon fiber driveshafts, different rear-end ratios, you name it.
Why bash the product? If the vendor (SARD or Greddy) were in here making wild claims about the product then there might be something to say. If this mod isn't for you, then move along. People spend twice as much as these things cost just on paint and body work all the time. No one is forcing anyone to buy this product.

Are you telling me a RB kit doesn't add 150whp?! My god man what're you on about???
This thread has totally derailed from 'I wonder how these components will perform' into absolute nonsense.
