I know the place you speak of, I was really dissappointed when the sales guy there played the same line when I was making enquiries the other day when I mentioned aftermarket pulleys.

When I commented on the package offered (thats now been discounted $2k because of the competition available) that I didn't want the car to appear to be modified so wouldn't want the cold air box (that isn't sealed or vents to the outside and hence doesn't get either cold air nor provide the slight positive airpressure that a cold airbox is supposed to provide) he then commented, yep your right it doesn't do much the young guys just like the sound - now that may be correct but he's just spent 10 mins telling me how great it all was.

Used to be a really no nonsense place to deal with.
