That's a pretty low bar
We lost an engines at 15K miles due to the resistance welds letting go, allowing chunks of silicone to get into the pump and causing it to split apart. Others have documented the same issue as well.
One of our customers put it best. "The probability of failure is low and seeming insignificant, until it happens to me."
For anyone that mods/tracks their car in spite of the factory warranty, this is an item that is only going to give some additional peace of mind.
What's interesting is a product that may fix something, or maybe even only provide some peace of mind for $50 has many up in arms but spending $2,000 to alter the sound of the car, with zero potential performance benefit, and there is silence from the skeptics and critics. It's the complain about gas prices, but then getting a $7 mocha latte every morning
