They are good kits..........for me to poop on.


Seriously if you know where to look you can build a kit that is probably twice as nice at the same cost. Check out your local junkyards and check the for sale section. What car are you putting it on?

some of the ---- you cant go wrong with-piping, clamps, intercooler, maybe bov

everything else is kind of questionable, but if you dont mind modifing some stuff/ or taking a chance go for it
but the full kits that are around 600 are not worth it, my current set up is only running me around 300 max, but it has some ebay ---- but mostly junkyard
