Why are you holding us to a higher standard than all other companies?
We are CERTAINLY not the only company who handles warranties like this, yet you are going out of your way to spin it into a poor customer service issue.
I am frankly bored with your painfully obvious agenda to make me and my company look bad. You need a new hobby.

fwiw I've seen more failed stockers than aftermarket, and when they fail(usually internally) they
take out a turbo. Though that is *definitely* a statistical thing; you're probably right in saying they're safer.

You'll have to make a support that can support the weight, but move about to support
the dimensional changes. Not the easiest thing to design/test. :-( Bolting it directly will fail the header in less than a week I'd imagine.
