I don't get it either. Are you thinking about ordering from them? Thinking about going there for work? Wanting to compare thier specific part to another company? If we are just talking in general they are really nice guys. They work hard. I haven't put enough miles on with thier stuff to make a fair assessment of it. So far I would give it 8/10 only minor issues and they are fairly experienced. Moreso though with the 3800 than the LJS it seems.

I don't have any experience with any of their parts other than there tranny mount inserts. But as far as the inserts go, they are really good quality and the service was prompt. They even gave me money back that I had already paid them because I had ordered 1 week after they started a new sale on the product.

I know that we have had one specific person on here and a few other who have been ******* Intense out. Why, I dont know. I know Nick had a complaint about how Intense/Hoosier Performance blew his car up, BS! All on this forum who know Nick know better or should. If you could comprehend the kind of abuse that his car took you would know why his car went KABOOM! You can beat on your Balt, but there is a breaking point in every car. Racing "EVERYONE", launching at "EVERY" light, and many other signs of abuse with minimal time to cool down, and I would like to add "NO COOLING MODS", will equal KABOOM!!! Every mod that Hoosier Performance has done on my car has been money. Rob Archer is a honest and straight forward guy. Those who challenge that please present me with some "SOLID" evidence of his neglience. Good luck finding any. I just think that those at Intense and Rob have been getting a bad wrap and it ridiculous. Especially for the ones that dont know about Intense and are scared to get tuning or performance packs because people say they'll blow your motor up. "BS!" I dont even know why this forum got started. I've said what I had to say...Thank you!

I have a Intense Stage 5, with a lot of other mods. All were completed by Rob Archer.

I've got their CABs and trans mounts on my car, and ordered my DSS axles and more than a few other things from them.

They've always had crazy fast shipping, and the one time they shipped me the wrong part they sent out another, the same day on a holiday weekend and I had it the next day.

Great customer service, I highly recommend

Intense is a great place to start with your balt whether it be stage kits or individual parts. Yes if you get a mail order tune you should still get a dyno tune, same thing goes with Gm stage 2 tune, its just the smart thing to do. But as far as individual parts prices and shipping goes i haven't heard anything but great things about em! Saying that they are responsible for 100's of engine blows is absolutely absurd, i have a buddy with a bonneville SSEI thats been running an intense tune for 3 yrs now, beats the living **** outta it and hasn't had a single issue with it.
