CTS selling ripoff manifolds

[Mister T]

So, in addition to selling shitty RP Chinachargers, CTS is pleased to introduced their new shitty PSI concepts ripoff manifolds. http://www.audizine.com/forum/showth...and-Supporters

Way to piss off the entire Audizine community Clay

Old news.

Re: CTS selling ripoff manifolds

Yeah, but ripping off someone who actually put some time and care into making a manifold that works is pretty weak IMO.

Re: CTS selling ripoff manifolds

Has anyone actually checked to see if the knock off is more poorly made?

Re: CTS selling ripoff manifolds

Funny how everyone jumps on CTS (Never met them, never bought anything from them) yet JHM is one of their Golden Boys and they have done the exact same thing to AWE....
Or Autospeed to APR, or SSAutojunk to JHM. **** happens.

Re: CTS selling ripoff manifolds

Re: CTS selling ripoff manifolds

i don't think being a lawyer is the prerequisite to sue.. otherwise everyone in the US would be a lawyer.

Since that was copy pasted from the Audizine thread I'll just post PSIconcepts answer

I'm not sure if I get your logic or reasoning...

When you skin a cat, you can use a knife, razor, scissors, or clippers to accomplish the same result. There may be more than one way to skin a cat, but there are MANY ways to build a manifold...

So you are saying that it's "OK" for a company just copy something because they have no money for R&D? This has been the culprit in the unfortunate industry these days. I noticed you have a "APR'd A4". So if we (not like we ever will, because we have business ethics) took your APR products, including their Stage 3+ turbo kit (which is a VERY nice kit BTW), sent it to China to knock it off, and branded it as say...."CPR", would you still buy it? Why did you pay all this money for APR's hardwork and name recognition? j/k

Also, last I checked, when Revo ripped off APR's base programming APR sued and won an out of court settlement.

Re: CTS selling ripoff manifolds

Audone on AZ= R-Audi on Eurodrivers just to clear that up... so that was me that posted that.

I was referring to the fact that many of the people jumping on CTS are the same that also support JHM, which is slightly hypocritical...

If Psi wanted to safeguard something they have spent money on, they should have patented it... ala APR who has one at least two in or of of court enfringements. (Didnt know about the Revo one, only the Autospeed one)
