you guys are lucky to have Dezod and TT, 2 great companies developing parts for the Scion Community. It creates more options for the consumer. Pick a side, try the product and be happy if it was exactly what you were looking for. If not then start over again...thats the beauty of having options. Half of you guys sound like whiny little 3rd graders. I personally have no experience with Todd, but enjoy seeing what he has up his sleeve. I have plenty of experience with Dezod, and love to see that they continuously are pushing out new innovative products. Wow, did you guys see that? I saluted both companies....hope i dont get attacked by the fanboys now
Dezod and TT, keep doing what you guys do best and dont listen to this bullsh!t drama thats being flung around

That's IF. And even then, that's still like a Home Depot employee saying he had a hand in turboing my car because I bought new bolts from Home Depot to mount my new return line with...

no....IF todd designed the mani (and I'm not saying he did) I would say he had a major part in the nitto car...just like if the home depot guy designed your mani, that's big part of the kit...bolts are not.

To each his own I guess. To me, it's still a "bought" part. When I think of someone having a hand in something, they physically are involved with the car. They are AT the scene doing something with it. That to me IS involvement.

But like I said...to each his own.

Well...I was actually speaking as if that manifold was custom made for that particular application. I doubt nitto just bought an off the shelf turbo kit for their car!
Wouldn't you like to just bolt on 700whp!

The manifolds that the Nitto car used/uses, can be bought by anyone. They are essentially off the shelf parts. Just they cost so much, they don't stock them. So they are made to order.

sweet so turbo toyotas had no part in my build... that saves me a mouthful for my next feature.

"I found the manifold on my porch in a box. So I was like, what the hey! I will throw that in my tC and see how it goes"

let it rest man...half of your posts in the last week that I've been reading is you nitpicking things apart. We all know that if Strickler played the same role that Todd did on that Nitto car you would be putting him on the pedestal saying how they played a part in the development of that car and dont say that you wouldnt cause we all know you would. Im sorry man, you know I like you but you really are at the top of your instigation game this week. Everything ok at home dude?

Nitpicking....I call it getting down to the particulars. And no, you are incorrect. I hold Kenny to the same level of merit. Difference is though, he wouldn't brag about selling Jotech a part, and saying he had a "Hand" in boosting the car...

You do have one thing right though....I am at the top of my instigation game. But I think Brett did something a lot more evil when he created this thread....
