Words are cheap There's theory (opinions). There's reality (statistically verifiable failure rates from actual installations). They are not the same!

So ask the various IMS suppliers how many of their units have been installed. Ask what their failure rates are? If they won't or can't provide you with statistically reliable numbers, they are just talking theory.

Theory is great. Just know when you put an IMS in your car, then theory turns into an experiment, which may or may not work out. And if the experiment fails, it will cost you thousands to remedy.
