POX on OBX

I, too, had a HotShot (S2) header which cracked.  It was the impetus which
spurred me to go turbo.  (I gave the header to Grover for his race car
after I installed my HotShot turbo kit.)  I wasn't pissed at HotShot that
the header cracked.  I talked to John about it, and he said that he found
that it was due to vibrations which are damped on the factory manifold by
the lower clamp, and that he had solved this in the next generation
header.  That's what I would expect from a reputable company.  They did
what they could to solve a problem.

I had an order into OBX for a fuel pressure regulator which I just
cancelled.  I can't in good conscience support a company like them.

As for popularity, my ethical behavior is more important to me.
