pretty sad but, really, i'm not at all surprised. i've been wondering for years when this was gonna finally happen.

comptech's products have generally been pretty good+no nonsense, but their marketing has always been horrible. they started out doing stuff primarily for track+race cars and took a stab at regular consumer products, but they never really made the splash they could have. like the other guy mentioned in the NSXPrime thread, Comptech took a major hit when their CART+IRL interests dried up.

oh well, you folks that have their parts better stock up on replacement bits while they're still available.

I've had nothing but trouble with GReddy manifolds cracking in the past on a previous vehicle.

My past experiences with Comptech FI is that it's reliable.
