Andy,

I think you are famous overseas!

Saw this at http://www.gennexmotorsport.com/main.php?car=1

That chart about parformance parts(?) they are using on this page looks vaguely familiar!

Another example of misleading advertisement! They're using the chart to advertise for Ociari body kit, claiming that the larger grilles on the Ociari is responsible for more air intake pressure as indicated on "Andy's graph." I don't remember Andy doing any testing with the Ociari body kit. The advertisement is a total lie.

I believe the writting is actually in Chinese, but the company address is in Taiwan.

They even stole a familiar signature photo from one of NAM member (Mgear) and put their company name over it. I think they surf on NAM regularly! Watch out!

Brings a whole new meaning to "Show me the numbers" and I don't care if they're someone else's numbers at least they are numbers right?

In this case, any numbers will do, regardless of the product they're advertising!

After browsing through that website, most of the products are similar to what we have here in the US like Alta, Madness, Promini, Mania, M7, et... The difference is that the same products perform better over there with higher hp output.

That's because Taiwan is an island, thus it is surrounded by water, which is heavier than air, causing dense air which provides more power.
