Karlson Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Kebin, "regular" people WILL buy it because they don't want to search!IPD did everything for them, and those regulars are ready to spend extra 1000 bucks just because they get a package..

Yup, so what's wrong with that? Some people don't have the time or the know how to peice things together..... Sure, everything can be had at a cheaper price... Here's what I paid for the engine parts on my car. IC - 600A-mist - 500Turbo - 200RIP kit - 300BOV - 150.DP - 500R mani - 250ECU - but how many peope have the time to get all that shit, for those prices? not many people outside of volvospeed. Your average 40 year old guy, who knows dick about turbo swaps, is gonna see this "kit", and go "effin sweet! all i do is pay, and my car goes way faster"...

THink about this tho Ilya, I know so many guys our age in jsut the seattle area, with S70's or 850's, that have put R bumpers, XC grilles, and other shit on their car, and they're not even VS members..(trust me, i've tried and i've tried to get them here ) . I'm sure one day, some of those guys will want to go fast... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyfishing3 Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 to be honest, i'm looking for another R and would probable buy a kit like this for multiple reasons.one. if my car blew up i'd sue the stuff out of ipd. if all the parts were out sourced who'd i'd yell at. the ups guy. 2. i'm lazy.no offense taken ilya. i was thinking the same thing. lol.mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussB Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 There is such a small Volvo aftermarket/performance niche, that it's great to see a company bring out products for the Volvo enthusiasts......then you have a parade of VS-assclowns that have to talk shit about those companies that do invest the time & money...time and money spent to make it better for all of us in the not-so long run. Want to do-it-yourself? Search through junkyard and eaby, piecing together your "dream car"? Cool for you, but there's no need to knock down those that make the parts packages easily & readily available for those who simply "want it that way"So much Hate VolvoHate.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karlson Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Who told you that they invested money??IPD just took software from TME, and TME cars in sweden are not that fast.so RussB, I would suggest to know the details before starting to bash others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
