Beware Of Hop Up Racing !!!!
Hopup racing has also posted other parts for other cars on their website for a low price but when you call them to confirm the product they make an excuse oh someone put in the wrong parts on their website.
Like this Greddy 3 row IC ... http://www.hopupracing.com/grfrmoinkitt.html
Doesn't go for less than $1195 anywhere. How are the able to price it for $779? What BS.

everyone including hopup should realize that, their prices are great. i got a letter from the better business bureau.... they didnt do anything, asked hopup what happened, and they are sticking by i have an evo9 not an 8 so the part isnt going to fit so i ordered the wrong part. ofcourse, its installed on the car now, fits just fine, just had an 02 bung installed on it. they never even sent me the part that screws into the bung on the catback of the 8 that is basically the spark plug foul. if i had an 8 this pipe would of set off my CEL also. those people are idiots. very lucky i dont live in CA.
Just came across this post and I hate to see working stiffs like us getting ripped off!
I had purchased a set of aem (now powerslot) big rotor kit for an rsx-s 3 years ago. They advertised them to fit with the stock 16" rims. I had 17's and they still didn't fit.
Long story short, they can give two shi*s once they have your money, and didn't even allow me to return them for their ridiculous 30% restocking fee, because they probably knew they will never fit and I was the sucker they pawned these off on.
Called AEM, great people. The AEM GM told me that Hop-up is not an official distibutor of their products and that he personally called them to try to resolve this issue of misrepresentation. They cared to do nothing but AEM hooked me up with a set of underive pulleys for my troubles.
Guys, save your hard earned dollars for people who deserve it. Learn from my mistake and shop else where.

sorry to hear about your trouble w/ them,i have never had any trouble w/ them myself. i have purchased many things from them because their prices are usually significantyl cheaper than other websites and usually offer free shipping. if a good reputable company stands behind there products and company name then they should work w/ you to some degree. "the customer is always right" good luck w/ this issue.
