When you get your parts from Lysolm and you have to compete with Mercury and Ford motor co. also getting parts,you could have a hard time producing.

I believe that the big boys liked the blowers so much that poor Dustin has been left out in the cold. Merc has too much money to let anyone just bolt on a supercharger and compete with their overpriced motors. So they have done something to prevent Dustin from getting what he needs.

Some call it free enterprise, others call it Bull$h!T.

I have a PRocharger, but Dustin has a great product and definately provides great support.
