Sertanly on a $10,000 upgrade from a nitch' manufacturer vertually begging for busness.


Am I the only one that found this really offensive?

Sertanly. But it was said out of ignorance.

why is it offensive? Is it not a very expensive nitch in the market? common sense tells me that most people other then people with very deep pockets and sponsors are going to be purchasing the 2.5 kit and having inline or one of the other companies install it. Is it a stretch to think that the nitch' companies that offer this kit are going to bend over backwards to get your buisness? a 2 year warranty is a selling point and one that should be offered to help make sales. Its a fine kit and one that should last, but thats not the point. How many Comptech or Vortec SC do you think were sold in relation to the 2.5 kit? I didn't mean any offense, just stating what I feel is a factual notion without so much explanation. I don't think my statement was based on ignorance.

Your posts are out of ignorance, not stupidity. Ignorance means you just don't know. Stupid remarks are when a person knows better, yet does the dumb thing anyway.

The ignorance in your statement was saying InlinePro is begging for business.

I don't have deep pockets. From the sc'er days, I already had the bigger fuel pump, injectors, AEM EMS. I already had an extra block and sold the good one. My choice was one of convenience. I am glad I went the stroker route. I feel I am able to comment intelligently on both fronts(FI & NA).

Another area not discussed is the reduction in weight between NA & FI. That sc'er w/ ac was not light. It was also on the front of the car.

If you want the stock like power curve just keep waiting for the roots supercharger kit. Looks closer to a stock s2000 power curve than a 2.5L does IMO and should cost less as well. It can also be taken off and sold if you want to return your car to stock.
