So basically set your MSRP way up into the sky, and offer a very attractive % discount that'll probably last for the lifetime of these parts.

Damn.

The TP's cost more than ART pipes without even showing any justification on price such as a dyno (independent). At the very least, send some pipes out for testing power and sound quality against competitors. Any more info on the design and R&D if any?

Marketing FAIL.

I love this design, it does cost more to do and money in R&D isn't cheap, but that's ridiculous. There is no way to justify that, at all.

Ehh, nevermind - I can buy an ebay HKS knockoff and have the Heimholtz resonators cut off and welded to my existing HFCs for less than half of your "intro price".

That way I wont have to be one of the first adopters stuck with ill fitting components like I was with your v1 grip exhaust, or have to wait for v2++++ for something that fits properly.
