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~
Yes, the statement was intended to be harsh. Obviously everyone has to learn, and you're right, everyone has a different learning curve. It's just sad to see people not do research and end up with a car that doesn't perform up to it's maximum ability. Meth injection is something you can always install later, but I consistently see people making bad cam, turbo, intercooler, etc choices, simply because they did not take the time and find out what's going to work best for their setup.
