You and just about every other 3rd-party Z part manufacturer are consumer predators when it comes to providing parts for these Z cars. And yes I know perfectly well there are two intakes but the entire apparatus shouldn't cost more than $400 to $500 tops for the actual amount and kind of physical material being purchased.

Why don't you people learn to quit acting like carpet-baggers guouging the hell out of the Z consumers? And don't even try to excuse your behavior using that "cost to produce" because we all know for a fact your profit margins are 3 to 4 times what standard profit margins should be to create something like that.
That's a little harsh, don't you think? Swat is just the retailer. Chances are that this thing is overpriced at the wholesale level. Point being, while I think your sentiments are actually somewhat justified, I think they'd be better aimed at TS rather than Swat.
