E-BAY parts that work well (evo only)
Just read entire 19 pages and here is the Summary:
Turbo Outlets made by ssautochrome don't fit well
other O2 housings on ebay work well
FMICs on ebay are hit or miss and appear to be replicas of larger comanies IE the sponsors on here
almost all who bought catbacks and/or turbo backs are pleased
Vortex Generators, almost all fit great
Turbo manifolds all crack after a short amount of usage.
Thats all I remember. Lol
also, I learned that Chinese children make 3 dollars and a biscuit per intercooler they fab

I may be bumping a year's old thread, but it's ok, I want to be able to easily find this later in my subscribed threads.

Only thing I noticed it the fitment with aftermarket LICP was crap. I almost put the stock one back on but I just bought a different hose and it works fine. Still plan on going with a quality IC and ditching this one.

[quote=Thore;9154537]Looks exactly like the old AMS Licp. to be honest it looks just like the stock one too. Dont think there would be much gains in that. *shrugs* Just save another $100 and get the ETS LICP or one of the cheaper ones like injen or Nisei. Sure you can find a used one here for cheap too.
+1, just look around for a reputable used one

I dont feel like reading through 22 pages just to see if some one posted it already... So, Xentec HID kits work very well. I have used a total of 8 kits with absolutely no issues. 3 of those being on my truck for 3+ years.

True but think about this it may crack easy but also cheaper to replace. Like Rotas I prefer them than Volks, If the Rotas in My car bends its cheaper and faster to replace than Volks. I put the good brand into My motor those would be more expensive to replace.
I got it from my GTO forums... they have the street race encounter area, and it always seems like there is a long drawn out story, so the OP will do a cliffs note version as well. Lol
but you are welcome, and it is helpful lol

Picking up my evo tomorrow morning ( 
) and thinking about testing out the ssac turbo manifold, my buddy works at a metal shop and the owner said hed give the cat back / down pipes by them he had on his b5 S4 a 8/10 for craftsmanship / welds, i can live with that! exhaust was on his car for over a year, sold it with it on there, no cracks or anything.
