The EMPI Story
It's lengthy but well worth the read. It's a shame EMPI is no longer synonymous with Quality, with such a proud history, only now to be associated
with cheap Chinese crap.

According to Hot VW's mag, Empi has changed hands. Further, Jaycee Ent is joining the Empi family. Maybe Empi is trying to improve their image by
getting Jack Sachette on board. I certainly hope Jaycee products don't go downhill in quality as they currently produce some really good parts.

I also hear car builder Dave "Pip" Pipoly from the Compound in Long Beach California will also be working with Empi to release some limited edition
gear.
He's built some insane rides! Checkout some of his builds on
Instagram - #compoundbuilt.
