Umm so based on your comment above ..... you must make your own turbo's, superchargers, tuner handhelds etc etc. BS.
Or is that another MARKETING LIE, or wait your marketing GIRL wrote that before you could proof it...

Nowhere did I claim to manufacture billet turbine wheels, or rebuild/ balance or assemble turbos. We outsource our silicone couplers, (everyone does)

Again. Post #2 deleted because you derailed it.

Maybe you should read what you post before you respond... you clearly state that : " Other then Exhaust parts you import " you manufacture your own ... ?? am I missing something or is it just you believing your own BS ??

So, please, what parts do you design and make on your own? I assume the intakes aka buying the filter, silicone adapter, and clamps and making the 3" tubes at a metal shop? So, filters are $100 from K&N, adapters maybe $30 as they are low qty, custom molded parts, clamps are $20...bending 3" tubes (mandrel bent) with no welds maybe $100 = $250? About right?

So now importing includes purchasing products from Domestic suppliers aswell? I need a new dictionary.

Also *Largely* does not mean 100%, For the most part we manufacture, what we dont manufacture is *Largely* sourced inside the USA with a few small exceptions aside from exhaust parts.

NO you dont need a dictionary , just be honest and stop trying to fluff or blame others if you get caught doing it.

the only reason questions are raised is due to something not passing the smell test.

You can say , hey we buy our stuff from the same suppliers as other we just combine it and offer more personalized support etc etc but instead you push this attitude that you are above that.

on that note, i see you deleted yet another thread, so if you want to re-address the so called Turbulence topic, let me know .

we can leave this as it is, but if you want to keep trying to put people including me down and calling issues childish rants , then we can goto school on a few topics if you like.

Our couplers which are outsourced, are specifically made for us, and designed by us, I am not assuming whether or not they are batch buying theirs, Just that ours are specifically contracted for us and no-one else has them "made" by a company we work closely with. Logically, silicone is manufactured in massive factories with special licenses required.

As for costs go, you can make all the stuff in bulk and let everyone know how much it costed you =) I think we are currently out $15,000 ish give or take a few hundred for this batch?

I can tell you for sure that the famous carbon intake you see online the tubes cost $175 per pair, I got a quote from the manufacturer. that $800 kit has no couplers, and no name filters

Ok, I was trying to stay out of this thread until you posted this non-apology and reiterated again how you perceive the customers you’re marketing to.

As a marketing professional myself, how’s this for SEO purposes?

Here’s VRP’s silicone methanol injection hoses, and how sloppy the molding was. I literally had to take a razor blade to remove the excess material or it would have ended up stuck in the intercooler (best case) or injected into the engine (worst case).

Quality work, quality service guys.

Yea the difference between your company and those, is they dont bash the customer, and are there to help.. your just a A-Hole about everything... You take ZERO accountability for anything you say, do, and more what your company represents. You still go on and on, on to blame others
when , you could have just said , ( YEAH I WAS WRONG, and was stressed out, so... sorry... ) and 99.99999% of the people reading this would have understood.. but YOU... MR VRP , are above all reproach , and want to keep putting people down ... which is funny AF....

Those "tabs" are normal with that type of silicone mold. Looks like the razor blade took them off for you in 15 seconds.

You also have the V1 holders for V2 nozzles, make sure to cut the length of the silicone extention down so the nozzle is completely in the stream.

If you switch to v3 you'll need new holders and v3 nozzles.

Same is true for pretty much all of the intakes on the market if you exclude carbon

But you'll never get the silicone from the garage,, so yes you can make 2.5", like the bms kit.

You need some 90s and a welder.. but good luck cleaning up the weld on the inside of the 90.

Here is a fabricated one....another guy made his own 2.5" intakes like that (very similar to this pic) and married them with larger turbo's and got some good power gains.
