George:
Awful news, does this mean goodbye to the Maxogen kit?

I dont think ts anything to do with "Being part of a brand" maybe im suspicious but to me its smacks of "Lets tie up a well known product with our badge on it and charge more coz they cant buy elsewhere!", soon enough Revo will own Forge and some other company (whose products I wont buy anyway) to tie the market down to 2 tuning houses who can charge what they like :fighting:, good for their profits, bad for your pockets!.
APR/VWR/ITG and REVO/FORGE and whoever else they are both likely to tie up with, they are all as bad as each other (Just my opinion) and part of the reason I looked elsewhere for all my mods, I am not one for lining the pockets of greedy companies with cut throat attitudes to something the consumer enjoys doing to his car :happy2:

Yup, goodbye ITG Maxogen, hello ITG Maxogen with aVWR sticker and 30% higher price tag :surprised:
MAT ED30:
the price might not change i don't think you should jump to anything yet until we all see what is going to happen i for one don't run an intake but in the future will see what happens as we all have plenty of choice if we search around
