Yeah so no negative press or reviews eh?
I understand where your coming from in some regards, but the point is simply this. The companies want to sell a product and that's all. Yes, that is true. But if you sell an inferior product. Word of mouth, consumer pushback, negative talk in forums. These things will hurt sales. If a product isn't liked, it won't be bought. I don't see many Vortec kits being run. Just looking at posts I would come to the conclusion that JR, Edelbrock, and Kraftworks are much more popular S/C kits. When you buy literally the first version of something, you don't get to read consumer reviews and judge a products quality. Your taking a gamble and betting on a brand name only.





Your assuming based on my comment that I'm in my early 20's.
I'm actually hitting 30. But when I was 19 I did buy a brand new car from a dealer lot. A Cobalt SS S/C to be exact. A 25k "Sports" car. Unlike the
Life is a continuous lesson.
You live and learn.
Just don't take the lessons and interpret them wrongly.
IE blaming a car for choices you made.
I am not going to comment on the negative press any further, no point.

Most importantly, do you or have you owned an 86? Because you have about 10 posts on here. If you have some mysterious contribution to this forum let me know but otherwise going to take it mostly as trolling and butt hurt.

Lastly, all the work was self done no shop helped with the process. I never blamed the car or the platform. (except for being built to a price point)

But other than that everything that needs to be said has been. This video series on the 86 is an experience piece about the cautions of modifying and doing work yourself. Nothing more, nothing less.

I suggest you make your own outlet or video channel so you can get your word out on how you do things, then maybe we can have more balanced debate.
