Brent,
Good luck. You're going to be hard pressed to get people to not give you their "opinions." Many of these same people troll in the Alt. Fuels section and tell people that they are idiots for using Veg Oil. Maybe they are, but they're in the Alt. Fuels section. You're asking a legitimate question. I have a set of Bosio nozzles that came from Kerma that haven't been installed, but I'm always open minded about other products. I say that it's your car, so go for it. Just be warned that anytime you put in non-oem parts you're exposing yourself. I've even seen OEM parts break. Go figure. My car was made of OEM parts when it was new.
I might buy a set for the hell of it, and give them a fair shake. Honestly, more ground would be paved on these subjects if there was less "told you so" attitude. People might be more willing to try new products and report back on a failure if they weren't going to be blasted so hard. We would all benefit, and there would be more knowledge of what works and what doesn't.
Are you looking at the ones from Prothe? I've purchased a few items from him for my MK1, and a few other pieces such as grill inserts and gasket sets with good results. His shipping is slow, and his service is lacking, but I've only had one incident, and I got a refund in 3 days.
China is a BIG place that produces a vast array of products. Chances are good that your computer and your expensive TV was made in China. Normally, if there is good QC (that is typically not Chinese) the product leaving the facility is good.
