Internet forums have really only become a popular method of doing business in this industry over the last 5-10 years. Traditional advertising such as magazines, shows, web mediums like youtube or the autoblogs and what not are still very effective. Additionally, we have a fantastic relationship with NISSAN which has translated to hundreds of dealerships around the world carrying our products.

Basically, yes, we understand that our "core" customer's are more than likely on the forums, however we do know for a fact that the vast majority of the supercharger systems that we have sold have gone to people who are not on internet forums, or have gone to dealership customers or even dealer principals for use on their own Z's and G's.

Also, I'm not trying to say that our paying customer's matter more. What I'm saying is, the people who are directly effected by this are the ones we feel the need to immediately respond to. Believe me, when everything settles down and it's all straightened out, we will be making a follow up post. We recognize that there is a lot of unanswered questions and a lot of confusion floating around right now. Right now our primary focus is getting everything sorted out.

Well stated, thanks Kyle
