Interesting viewpoint. I had never heard of meth injection until I got to discussing it with Kyle (BlackZenkiS14) at an event not so long ago. Did some research and was pretty much sold on the idea of it for a cheap & very effective addition- Kyle's car is an absolutely perfect example of why it's an invaluable thing for enthusiasts/weekend warriors to have. Definitely on my 'to do' list; and I'm thankful to have him on speed-dial when I do the install this winter.
As far as the other stuff goes, either I misinterpereted the intent of the statement; or maybe it was a little harsh(?) The other '90% of people that are into cars/racing/drifting etc' (myself included) live on a learning curve- Hell... come to think of it- We all do. Anyway- Some of us hear about these things and ask questions... while others
choose to remain ignorant... Not because of laziness (okay in some cases yea lol); but because there is a certain sense of contentment to be enjoyed when a setup works well as-is.
Now... My sympathy dies very quickly when people SHOULD be asking questions and don't... Or go ghetto because quality and the wallet are at odds. But in general, not everybody knows... or even knows what research they should be doing. Even so, it doesn't make them any less 'into cars/drifting/racing etc...' It just puts them on a little bit steeper side of the learning curve~
Personally, I think that every average Joe who drifts or races with an SR or RB under the hood should run meth injection... 6-9 months ago I had no opinion because I was 'ignorant' lol.
Just my thoughts
