What he said ^
Of course Chris or whoever from SBD will try to provide good customer service etc etc. It makes him a good salesman/businessman. Not necessarily a good person.

I don't care how awesome of a person you are, I don't support counterfeit goods. If I don't think the genuine article is worth the price, I just wont buy it at all.
Then thats what you should've said instead of talking crap about the kit. Plain and simple.

That is what I said the entire time. SBD is cheap because they stole another company's design, thus saving costs on R&D.

I dont think I ever said their kits are low quality or cause failures.

They're just ripoffs, plain and simple.

EDIT: To connect the dots for you in case you say I'm going off-topic: SBD kit is cheap because it is a ripoff.

It is a country without the officially recognized title.

I guess some people in here still use candles instead of light bulbs. Cause the idea was stolen from Tesla.

And I am not saying what Zage did was right. Just some people need to get off their high horse.

I understand that point completely, and have no valid defense I could personally come up with on that. Exactly why I'm not taking sides even though I have positive experience regarding their kit. As a business owner I would not attempt to resell a kit that was such a clear replica design.

Ever had a car with port fuel injection? Guess you should sell it, its all a knock off of Stuart Hilborn's designs. You should support the developer. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuart_Hilborn

Does you car have tires other than Goodyear? Yes? Better sell them. Goodyear developed vulcanized rubber. All others are imitators - period.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulcanization

Is everyone pissed at Fuel Safe for copying ATL's fuel cell designs? No. Should we be pissed at Winters for producing knock offs of Franklin quick changes? How about Aluminum engine blocks? The first one was cast for McLaren by Reynolds Aluminum. Don't buy a car with an aluminum engine block, or you are a hypocrite.

Should I keep going? There's examples of this in almost every component of every vehicle.

This argument is stupid. If you have ever been involved in any form of the auto industry you know that it is all monkey see monkey do. Everyone copies eachother. Especially if someone is winning.

edit: words

But isn't Trust affiliated with Greddy. http://www.trust-power.com/ ..Greddy is all over their site. Unless Trust is doing the R&D and branding it as Greddy to sell products. http://www.trust-power.com/86_brz/index.html?cate=turbo .
