A blind man can see straight through your motive with this post. In your video link it would help if you'd offer some narration, otherwise it appears that you are a mime, right down to the gloves.

When your technology (actually its not yours) is applied near 25,000 times, and people all over have installed them, you might graduate to a level high enough where a component fails.

Under my roof we have completed 400 IMS Retrofit procedures, dating all the way back to a time prior to 2007. Out of those we have not experienced a single failure of any IMS Retrofit product. Why? Because of the regimen that I developed and the post- process support and instruction that we provide to the vehicle owners. Qualifying the engine prior to the IMSR is just one part of the process, the job is not done when the car is finished; we must ensure the owner uses premium quality engine oil, and services the engine every 5K miles or 6 months.

That said, say what you want, the Lion isn't concerned with the opinion of the Lamb. No one will know the variables behind that failure, but what I want to know is why are you posting it, and why isn't the owner concerned enough to report this through the proper channels? Everyone reading this knows why.
FOR EVERYONE'S INFORMATION: We got banned from Rennlist for not being a sponsor. They do not allow advertising your company or products if you do not pay them for it. This is the only reason we got banned from there. We never got a change to get a sponsorship, you don't get banned for telling the truth.
People, research the beginning of Porsche forums, and it's history! Porsche also sent them letters in the past forbidding to use their name. We have changed the name of our company for the same exact reason, but we're still the same people doing the same work.

Owner just found out yesterday, so I guess he hasn't had time to report it yet. I assume he will want his $800 back (LOL), which he paid for a $150 part, and eventually cost him 16k. No matter who would sell these bearings, I would post the same thing anyway, because this design is faulty. Anyone else would have already admitted there is something wrong, and changes would have to be made. But not in this case.
I respect you for being good at what you do, but seeing what an ass... you can be sometimes, you loose my respect at the same time. I follow your posts too, and I see notorious contradictory statements, and I think you are over promoting yourself. You don't need it, you already do a great job, and people know you very well. Every time you go overboard and keep feeding people bs, I will point it out. Here's an example: I saw your post regarding your metal scrap. You brag about how much scrap you just threw out, supposedly from the last 6 months. That's not even 1 truck load, but it's still a lot of scrap. I remember you saying on Rennlist, maybe a couple of months ago, supposedly you just took a few army trucks worth of scrap to the yard. You needed to brag about yourself then, and now looks like you finally took it there. See what I mean? You say that you have 80 engine cores, and you ask us if we have a 3.8l crank shaft and case for sale. You have purchased our parts in the past. Let me give you this advise: tell the truth, because it's easy to remember.
You have called me a mime, I do my job right, no need to narrate it. That's how I've been brought up, I do not have to talk about my work, it speaks for itself. I don't need to narrate what is plain to see. Unlike your videos, which most are exaggerated and have horror music added to raise the tension.
Privately, if I ever wanted to install IMS upgrade in my car I'd go with the roller bearing, or if I had more money to spend I'd buy your solution. It's sad that nobody cannot admit that retrofit does have some faults, which can be very costly. Customer who just lost 16k will be able to receive his $800 back in the best case scenario.
We recently had a customer who called to ask about the IMS replacement. He has been doing his research online and on the forums. We have advised him against the retrofit, and offered him a roller bearing. He wasn't sure about this option, since he hasn't heard about it before. Then, he asked if there's anything else we know about, money is not the issue. We recommended your solution, because we know it's a good design. We always say the truth, if something is good, it's good, if it's bad, it's bad, that's the bottom line.
I'm not going to fight with you or anyone else publicly. I just have my own opinion and I'm free to express it. If people will keep buying retrofit, it's only more work for you or me
