Re: SSS Autochrome
I have one of those Monster/sidewinder/one fab knock off in route now.It was $142 so Im really hoping it looks good from a quality standpoint.I will inspect it take pictures and do a mini write up.Unfortunetly it wont see service till spring so for now just a review on the construction,assembly and weld quality.

that is precisely the little "incident that i was talking about above, me as a broke *** mexican used a common oil line from my local shucks! and riged a ghetto azz drain that end up being kinked after i purged the turbo, way to go! later that day i went online and bought some really nice russel steel braided hose and some rice looking fittings, they work great! sometimes you just learn the hard way, i remeber the post that says "DONT CHEAP OUT ON YOUR OIL LINES" even before this happened :1 , i had to clean the ---- out of the charge pipes. the turbo works flawlessly even after that.

JG uses Crower Cores,
and I thought it was pretty much common knowledge that everyone knew that toda was the first to introduce billet cams for hondas? hence.. why they are pretty much the best cams for hondas.
The cams I got from SSauto look pretty good,
Here is the auctions
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Integ...temZ8018097065
thats pretty cheap for a pair of cams and valve springs. More than likely gonna try out the crank kit too when it comes out =)

Wow the SS autochrome invasion is on. I'm really hoping he has stepped up on the products as it would be great news for people like me and HMT.I ordered a intake manifold lasat night as well so we will see how it looks in a week.Came with a RFL Bov all for $125US
