Very valid point ^ . Looks to be not much plumbing involved which would make it fairly closely priced to a direct replacement.

I had a look at the unit and kit yesterday and it looks pretty smick. For me, it's about two main issues now. Firstly, the cost. Secondly, how much better will it work than the OEM unit when tested under light/medium track? If you go into limp mode it's pointless.

So no milkshake, constant trans temps, better performance than OEM are what I'm looking for in an upgraded exchanger. I don't think a milkshake fix and nothing else is going to make people buy it over an air-oil unit at that money. Without any real data on it's performance other than a quick log under normal conditions, we just don't know how well it will perform over OEM at this stage.

I was asked what price point was going to sell when they were developing it and I said around $500 inc needed to pull it up. If it's proven to control temps better than OEM under track conditions then I'd consider it at that money. $700 is too steep though imo.
