I recall once a number of years ago, when I was involved in a civil legal issue. My attorney cautioned me about the potential economic costs of my actions with regards to his own legal fees, and how they may escalate. I appreciated his transparency on this issue.
In that respect would a supercharger provider also be morally required to warn you that at increased speeds tires generate more heat and this can lead to failure and loss of control?

See what I'm getting at?
