Just for clarification its $600 for used and $550 for new....and the extra $50 doesnt cover the added hassle IMO.
The thing is when my customers ultimately see the work performed no one has ever complained about the price. Think about it....if what I have been providing over the years was even remotely sub par, you bet your butt someone.... many people in fact would have voiced their opinion about it. I could certainly do half the work and spend half the time doing it, charge you guys 50% less but thats not what I'm about. Im a perfectionist and I like to optimize everything I'm involved with, especially anything engine performance related. It's just one of my greatest passions if you will.
I would also rather port three intakes a month the right way than rush thru ten at half the cost. To be honest I could probably make alot more money if I dropped prices a bit and spent less time porting....it would still have the "ported FAST" title attached but I wouldn't be putting out a product I could feel good about having my name (and reputation) attached to it. It takes years to build a truly good reputation and unfortunatly (if I had to guess) probably only months to destroy one....LOL.
Much like cylinder heads...."ported" FAST intakes are not the same and results will vary based on the quality and consistancy of the work performed.
Whether you want to pay the premium for my involvement is of course a choice only you can make based on how much you value what I offer....its not for everyone.
Sorry for the semi rant....just felt the need to share!
Thanks,
Tony
