Light02atl,
Please keep in mind that we invited JimIII here to share his expertise and provide details on what JDM has to offer. Certainly there is some "marketing speak" that you'll have to interpret and filter out if you so wish.
There's no need to "call" anyone on anything -- we're not looking for a verbal arm-wrestling match here, and we won't tolerate one either.
There is no doubt a lot of R&D in stuff like this, and JDM has been cutting edge in this hobby. One might even say "bleeding edge." Sometimes that comes with a cost.
JDM also works very closely with Saleen, and certainly they have a variety of business arrangements that they have to honor (which are none of our business, by the way).
There's something to be said for race-proven performance and expertise, and JDM offers that, and they also enjoy a reputation for excellent customer service.
Proven performance does not come cheap -- and it's one thing to duplicate it, but it's another thing to innovate it.
There are other shops out there as you mention, and they are welcome to present their offerings as well.
But let's keep the discussion friendly and informative.
