Never bought anything else from that guy.
The going rate for Hp is about 20-30 bucks for each Hp with the exception of N20 (Nitrous). Reason being nitrous isn't sustainable (is this a word?) whereas port & polish, cam profiles, displacement, etc is .

i still don't get it. i've bought tons off stuff online other than ebay and have never been rated as a customer. a business that rates how cooperative customers are and if they thought they had a good experience is just lame IMO (a customer service manager). who's accomodating who these days? but on good note, gotta love dealing with people online rather than on the phone or in person; it is so much easier (coming from, shamefully, a customer service manager )

ah yes, they have finally hit the century mark- 100hp improvement. and more importantly, it works on a "2003 Crossfire"- nice.

Yep, you know it's not true, so anyone can sell snake oil and get away with it. How is that even possible?

And the guy has a 99.8% positive rating.

As the old maixim goes "you get what you pay for", with that said I think the buyers know they are being ripped off. In the back of thier heads they will leave positive feedback to validate thier purchase......IMHO.

This is another way of "scamming" I have bought two items in the last three months with extended ddleivery, using PayPal, the vendor advises order received- will give shipping notice--a date is given, the item does not show up ---the time is over the 30 days Ebay allows for complaints and my money is gone

I have contacted Ebay about this practise and they say they are looking into it

Do you look at the sellers ratings/feedback etc., prior to purchasing?
