Just because something is expensive or has a well known brand name attached to it doesn't make it good. HKS makes alot of garbage products (their WRX downpipe was attrocious). Look at stuff like HRE wheels ($$$ but banned from motorsports because they suck.)

He isn't getting the Cosworth cams that Works sells - he has no need for a valvetrain upgrade.
Ducu, get the cams straight from GSC and the LICP from Buschur. Order them before you leave, then have them shipped to where you'll be in NY or LV, if that's possible.

Give it time. I state this informatin not to offend those who have made investments in Megan products but to warn of the extraordinary examples of a consistently poorly manufactured brand name. Believe me I could care less about brand names but I will be the first to bring up a specific brand if it's quality is under par. I have been down the budget mod road in the past and have had to spend some time in money righting those modifications that I went against my own better judgement.
Megan I would venture to say OVER A YEAR AGO evolved the hangars with extra bracing and hanger design changes. The newest version uses no hardware at all on the catback and is the best design yet.
Lets not pretend that old designs are reasons to complain today. Rarely does any company get it perfect the first time. I will not name the some of the biggest vendors own products on this forum that have had fitment issues in the past. The important part is that any issues are recognized and addressed. I believe Megan has done a great job to address any issues that have crept up in old designs.
