Why are Prodrive parts NOT the most popular?

I'm not familiar with Prodrive. So I just came to wondering that, by looking at most vendors' product list, it is obvious that Prodrive, the authentic maker of the WRC impreza, does not hold a place when talking about the most popular aftermarket manufacturers.

Why is that so? I'm sure this has to do with the "not-so-wide" product spectrum from Prodrive....But why doesn't Prodrive pro-actively be creative about the aftermarket parts industry for use by subaru cars like others do (e.g. STI, HKS, etc.)?

ProDrive USA are currently still in the process of setting up shop here in the USA. Most products were imported and then sold at a inflated price however prices will begin to drop and more availablitly soon. They are still some of the best however a lot of the JDM stuff is avilable through the honda/acura shops at better prices but IMO not better products
