If you don't at least read or research data readily available to you (on this very forum), then you really do get what you deserve. Its become a generational issue, most of us over the age of 50 take responsibility for things we do. Many of those under that age seem to feel it is someone else's job to protect you from yourselves. CAVEAT EMPTOR it's a latin phrase that is applicable here. BUYER BEWARE!!! It's a good rule of thumb to live by. BILL
Yeah, I remember some serious 'fights' you had with Saskins in this forum. To be honest, if it were legal here I'd have bought it too. Surely not for its power improvement (nothing to mention about) but for it's special look compared to the oem plastic intakes.
But that's not the point scott is talking about. Everyone expects serious conditions and good contacts when buying something (namely from a forum member).

Here again a big THANK YOU to Andrew and Dan!! Always excellent communication and support.

So you see, it has not much to do with age. Therefore: PACTA SUNT SERVANDA (latin: contracts must be fulfilled).
