Basicly it's no secret we have played around with various budget parts over the last year, some parts we have excellent luck with and others the quality just wasnt there. It's also no secret dsmers have been trying some of the ebay parts with some succes. Do a quick search on any of the dsm forums and you will find ebay parts account for a huge amount of the discussion's going on. So what we decided was to try and take some of the guess work out of things, we went out and did our own testing, found the parts that worked and the parts that didnt.
The parts you see on ebay are there for a reason, we aren't trying to hide anything, if I was I wouldn't have added our website address to the listing. If we are going to carry a line of "ebay" type parts what better place to have them in the market than on ebay. It also helps us reach out to a new group of customer's, you would be surprised how many emails we are getting from people who are new to the dsm world, and dont visit the forums. If they prove to be popular we will be adding a section to our site that is dedicated to budget parts.
So to end this book these parts aren't for everybody, some people want to stick to the brand name's other's would prefer something easier on the wallet. We will continue to put together some of the baddest manifolds o2 housing's and turbo kit's around, but for us to ignore 60-70% of the dsmer's out there who are buying the majority of their parts on ebay doesnt make sense.
