Sales@KRATOS I think you need to park the justification as you will just go around in circles as we have seen. All your in depth posts have either elaborated on the technical or the pricing approach and I for one appreciate this. I hate to see this turn into a he said she said argument.
You have a great product, some will say expensive some will say priced well. At the end of the day if you want Kratos buy them, if not buy something else.

Kratos hands down is providing great information & has the quality to prove their statements.
I myself am running PS2+ & just seen my local shop install Kratos & all I can say is these turbos are no joke! Definitely plan on switching once I upgrade/semi build motor & clutches. Keep up the great service |

Of course they have to recoup R and D costs and then put a little in their pockets. They have people to pay and bills to cover. Do you honestly believe their only role in life is to spend tons of money on R and D only to sell their final product at cost to make forum members happy? |

I mentioned that I appreciated what they are doing for the platform and completely understand what they’ve accomplished
In general, do other companies not invest in R&D?? Everyone places a major investment in R&D to be a step ahead of the next guy....I mentioned Precision Turbo and they are the best in the industry hands down. Materials? It’s stainless steel buddy which all fabricators/companies build their manifold from. Sure there are cast iron but I’m comparing SS here. Everyone test their product to get the best flow out of them. Every part matters. At the end of the day, they are not paying more for “material” and turbine/exhaust housing than the next guy (from a business standpoint...they shouldn't be at least). So when you make a comparison on parts cost regardless of their R&D, there is just no comparison where this markup is coming from. Oh yea!!! R&D!! I am extremely interested in the turbos, but 6k for a couple of turbos and manifolds no matter who they currently support doesn’t fit the bill. Matter of fact I saw your turbos on the classifieds and caught my attention. |

i am actually deal a lot of customers complaint about the product i sell is 20%-30% more expensive than other companies. i always tell them that buy from others and compare with mine. material is the same does not mean the item/end product is the same. sometime it will take a year to tell why my product is better but they just don't know and keep asking for "price match". i just tell employees to reply sorry we are not offer discount at this time. back to the topic, if you think the price too high, maybe you should look somewhere else. there are other turbos also do pretty well and price tag around 3k. it is not like they buy all the turbo and make a 3k make up. |
