Here's a good example:
My boss just bought 2 of the new Audi TT's, one roadster and one coupe. These are very nice cars (and quick as a mutha f****) I think he paid something like 35k each. If that technology wasn't anything special, then howcome tons of new sports cars haven't screwed with the recipe in 17 years? SFI, as far as I've heard, was a new and exciting thing at that time. Also, when looking at the December 1997 issue of Car Craft the other day, I was looking at their 10 yr anniversary special and even then they said "see that radiator looking thing, that's an intercooler worth 45 horses."
I think most of us have given up on trying to enlighten others of the power of the dark side...when I was 18 or so, I used to have magazine clippings in my wallet that I would immediately tear out and throw in the face of those who called me a liar, but you know what.....they would always try and argue anyway.
