24 bucks a pony which turns out to be 600 dollars. He's got us by the balls.
Nobody else is doing this to that extent.
the SC is 38.50 per pony. That's 100 hp / 3850.00 which includes the
optimizer and a knock sensor that automatically retards timing when it
knocks/detonates.
a typical cat back is $300. If it gives us 10hp it costs $30 per pony. Maybe
the optimizer isn't so expensive considering these facts.
