    Im happy that you have had such great luck with two vendors that...
    A) develop products that fail and market products that do not work
    B) Refuse to stand behind their products and constantly fling **** at their customer base.
    C) develope tunes that are nortorious for causing all sorts of issues.

    If you haven't caught on, im talking about intense and ZZP.

    W body store, well... They have some nice stuff, but they dont ever restock.

    PFYC sells some great stuff, but don't push the items that we could really use like the dif that they use to make.

    See, you seem to think that since there are bad sites that somewhere there is a good site.

    You must believe that there is a good politician out there somewhere. Just because there is a pile of coal in front of you, dosen't mean that you will find a diamond.

    When you list all of the aftermarket suppliers for our cars, its easy to disagree. Try finding a bolt on turbo kit for under $2300 that can be sold nationwide. Try going 10's in a 1/4 mile with a full weight street car without any of their ideas or innovations associated with your build. There is alot of their products that are introduced to the market and later sold 2-3 times with no worries.

    When you come up with a better site to recommend for the most basic aftermarket proven parts, then say it. There are many other cars out there with NO aftermarket vendors available, we should be thankful there is one at all.

    Ahh, dammit...

    Why do you have to have a valid point

    Great customer service, they might have. But I still have seen them not stand behind products on many occasions.

    They are our only majour sponsors, so you do have to support them somehow. I would make sure that you check with our sponsors first before veering to the vendors that don't sponsor this site.


    Just make sure you do some research before buying a product from the two titans of trash.

    I agree 100%, **** ZZP. They screwed me outta $200 and as far as i'm concerned they can eat **** and die. Long story on that situation but they suck.

    I've had better luck with Intense but there nothing to write home about either.

    The only venders that are worth a damn in this community are PRJ Performance, Overkill, 3800 Performance, Devilsown (although they cater to everyone, not just us), Triple Edge Performance, Green Bastard Performance, and PFYC. If I can't get what i need through them, I don't need it at all. Beside these few venders, this is all we got and its pathetic, wish we had a lot more options. At least the ones I listed are realible and will go out of there way to help you out. Screw everyone else. I'm thankful my car is where I want it to be and don't need anything else, because the aftermarket isn't here and if it is some of the prices are ridiculus. For ex: $85 alternator reloc brackets? Pathetic.

    You should see the venders for the TB SS LS2 community, it would make you guys sick. So many choices, so many options its unreal. Don't have to rely on one or 2 venders to mod your vehicle, there are probably a dozen out there and they have way better results/records with there customers than our "big" venders...
