that actual Mechanical failure rate is pretty low. I've seen a few pumps fail, but rarely the clutch pak. I was the first in the country to run the Blue controller (before it was Blue) and had no issues for a lot of years. The Blue Performance unit will make some nice subtle changes, moreso if you track the car. That said, I'm not a fan of the Orange controller.. It's an HPA Hack. Years prior to it's availability, Haldex actually worked pretty hard to get similar hacked units off the market. I think they've worked with HPA, But insist it be marketed as a Competition only. Their concern was one of safety in street application. I know of at least one guy who removed his for this reason...
