They don't run the board. They don't own the board. And I believe they don't even sponser/partner with the board anymore. It is cool intense is doing this but it looks like they are takign a lot of credit for another companies work.
what ever happened to their own kit they were supposed to release?

I'll offer Intense some advice, sincerely: After the "outing" of their previous business practices, I'd break into another automotive platform entirely. Start new with a different market, perhaps they could look into the Cobalt or Solstice. The GTO would compliment the new partnership with STS; perhaps they could even look into trucks.
Much of the W-body community seems to have been turned off after the beating they took from the LSD's and PCM's. I know the Big Cheese there has some academics and sales experience but I'm offering an opinion with an MBA and over ten years of sales experience backing me up.

HAHAHAHA ROFLMAO!!!!!
From 13.8 - 12.99999999999 with just slicks and LSD?? 2.2 isnt THAT bad of a 60 foot. Plus, if they want the car to cross the finish line, Id keep the stock dif in. :lolsign:
Keep trying Scott Crook. God himself could not save Intense, and I dont see you getting any more of IL's money unless you get the clueless ones.
The kit itself is fine, however, the only reason I would buy it is if it were cheaper than anything else on the market, which it is not. Scott has said that this will be more expensive than other kits that are on the market. If I had to estimate, I would say that this kit will be around $4,500. I would rather have an under hood turbo with custom tubular headers and air to air intercooler for that cost.
4500?? Thats an I/Ced CT turbo kit that is PROVEN to take you to 11 with other minor mods.
But I guess Scott needs to make up the money that he spent being "Innovative". I didnt know being "Innovative" meant hiring another company to make the kit. :lolsign:
The only decent thing I like about the kit is that it gives owners the ability to purchase or keep our aftermarket headers.
Fuck them and there 10 second turbo.............I dropped over 4.56k in this company on a trans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not to mention another 1k-2k in other parts.................didnt stand behind me for shit............
that is the God damn truth w/countless other IL GPers behind me......... :angry: :angry: :angry:
So I felt pretty bad that a lot of guys felt cheated by Intense in some sort of way, so I decided to email Scott this morning and see what he thought of it all. I left peoples names out and only quoted from this thread...

Scott,
I posted a message in one of our car club forums about the new intense/sts turbo coming out and man was that a bad idea... i had no idea that intense was no longer a sponsor of our club and there are seriously some really pissed off people with just the mention of Intense... and here I've always thought good things bout you guys... but I'm getting shafted on the site by these people! Is there any possible truth to any of these comments? Couple guys have said...

I’ll respond to each one specifically if you like. If that’s what you want, just forward these emails back to me along with the name of the person who posted each one, and I’ll respond with facts.

I'm not going to write him back with peoples names, but I suggest that those of you that feel you've been doomed or cheated by Intense in some way, email him back and tell him exactly what happened. It sounds like he's willing to listen to reason, maybe not... I think it's funny that 3800Pro.com is still listed in his signature though...

Are you really this damn stupid, you think scott and the rest of his crew or leghumpers dont read boards all the time making a list of people and what is being said daily. well congrats you have now achieved leghumper status, hope you dont get a STD.
