As Forum sponsors Ya from Inline Pro have moderating powers over this forum.

As the Thread starter Ya can close it if he wishes.

If this continues with a fest I will lock it. I'm sure AusS2000 will do the same.

HYPERTUNE,
Where can I buy your intake? Full Race carried them for a while but have been out of stock for two years (last time I checked). I love the billet intake and would gladly pay the higher pice. I realize that you have to use your throttle body as well but this will not work for me as I have an '07 and it's drive by wire. Any chance you'll make an intake that will fit the OEM throttle body? If not I'll buy the intake and have an adapter fabricated.

Thanks,
Chris

OK, I'm going to get hold of one of the Inline Pro manifolds (somehow, care to sell me one Ya? Or lend me one?), then cut it up and show cross sectional images and measurements compared to my manifold.

I'll make a page on my website, with all of the info available.

There will be plenty of detailed pics showing a stock manifold, the Inline Pro and mine.

I'll edit all my posts to show just a link to the page.

That way, people can decide for themselves wheter or not my manifold was copied.

I'm sure Ya would agree this is a good idea? You know, seings I'm wrong and all......

Sure it looks like yours but how are you going to sit there any tell anyone the measurments are the exact same based solely on pictures? A lot of intake manifolds looks the same. Go ahead and buy one and do that, I mean shit you are entitled to.

The fact of the matter is you should have waited until you did that research before you went and threw inline pro under the bus like you did. If infact it is identical then I cant blame you for being pissed and calling them out like you did. BUT YOU DIDNT. You havnt even seen one in person. What if you iare wrong? The damage is already done. And dont give us that nonsense "if you saw a picture of your child would you know its yours?"

on another note. Even if it is copied. Look at the industy. Look at the turbo manifolds for the supra. Almost every manifold is a copy from a greddy, hks or full-race. They even call them a "hks knockoff", a Full-race knockoff ect. Do you see these companies bitching that there are thousands of turbo manifolds sold on ebay for $130 that people actually buy and use with great success. I havnt seen them bitch because they know at the end of the day they make a better product.

If your manifold is better LIKE YOU CLAIM then what the #### do you care anyway?This is IF your manifold was copied which I personally dont think because you havnt convinced me seeing that you havnt even seen the manifold in person yet.

Hypertune

Do you have a copyright or patent?


If not, you are wasting your breath, if so you will make a ton of money if you can prove this is stolen.

Either way you should spend more time trying to sell your product than bitching about it

I see HYPERTUNE won't address why their IM looks so much like GReddy's,so what about it?
