Ok, that was funny.

Say you want to buy an assembled shortblock. So you go to
21jumpstreetpirateparts.com and there you see a Buschur engine and a Jun engine at the same price. Would you find a way to convince youself not to buy the JDM part? Probably not, as the JUN engine can be reasonably said to be the more "proven" choice.

In the real world, these two shortblocks are vastly different in price. Why is that?

That site doesn't work? No, I suppose it doesn't.
Do me a favor. Re-read what I wrote in my last post(#46). Do you see where it says, "In the real world, these two shortblocks are vastly different in price"?
Come on, you calling me a moron is way out of line. I didn't call you bright, did I?

Are you drunk or something? It seems you are just trying to entertain yourself. You can't possibly be for real.

Vigo,
You seem like a nice guy. I am not attacking you or anything. I'm sitting here in my office, doing my payroll taxes, and browsing EvoM.

I'm not drunk or something, no.

I am responding to something that you said. Which didn't make much sense.
So, to recap:
- Your Johnny Depp reference was funny
- So was mine
- The site doesn't work
- Of course you would buy the better one at the same price
- I am real
- I guess I do entertain myself. But you've done a bang up job as well

Wow. That thing must have some massive top end power. I would assume you could keep up with an M5 or F430 from 60 up to 120mph. From stand still this thing would probably shame a Carrera GT or Enzo.
