Even if that were true , who here is benefiting from that other then the very top people in the company . And now the playing field is about to be leveled , we will see how china does when they no longer are allowed to have those ridiculous trade tariffs ! Like i said plenty of great parts made right here U S A ! You know i never heard anyone say MAN i wish i could find one of those made in China !

They might be good at manufacturing and reverse engineering, they(the pacific rim inhabitants) have little imagination. They cant come up with anything original. But hey, as long as there isn't any intellectual property that isn't a problem.

Consumers benefit from lower prices on goods. Share holders benefit from higher share prices and dividends - guys like you and me with a 401k containing publicly traded stock.

This we can agree on. ALL tariffs are ridiculous, whether initiated by the US on incoming goods or on US product exported to other countries.

I don't need government dictating what I decide to purchase.

Where have you been living the last 20 years? Everything is manufactured in China. By insisting on lower prices goods, the US consumer is effectively asking for product to be made in China

Couldn't agree more. I have first hand experience with this. The Chinese are not good at problem solving or outside-of-the-box thinking. I think it is a result of living and being educated in a communist country. Everything is so structured and controlled by the govt their entire life.....that when faced with a task that requires a creative solution....they are completely out of their element.

I almost bought a set, but I found a good deal on factory headers so I didn't. Warwagon has the little bit older version and he loves them. I still am thinking about buying a set to cut apart to make Series 2 turbo headers. I like how well my old 3.8 runs. Once it blows up I don't know if I will build my Series 2 or a 4.1. What do you need another set of headers for??

I hope you make up for china's loss of profit for not buying the headers and order some chinese food this week....:oops:
