Is this advice saying they are weak or is it just a flaming?

I'd like to know a bit more about these boxes too. Are they pointless for road/everday use?

search on 'how does it work' or something and find out how a dog box works then go from there...im 100% sure there will be multiple threads on p-wrx about dog boxes
