I don't understand the question ... and yes I am part of said "tuner" community (judging by my sig) that is why I'm concerned ...
BTW I have been working on cars for about 15 years (professionally on and off) and to my knowledge no they don't just burst into flames from impact .... Thats called a defect of some sort of part (or a ford pinto). I have seen accidents with cars split in half and they did not burst into flames .... But for example, putting cheep chinese made fuel pressure regulators and fuel rails, can cause shit like that, cause the RnD wasn't there for safety ... Hence the point of my post.
I'm not trying to be a dick or something. Just wish some of us in the community would support the real companies that put RnD in to parts, cause safety is one of the issues in producing them ... Not so much for the cheep chinese knockoffs ...
Again I hope the best for the people involved ...
