i just buy the parts based on their build quality and proven performance. if 99% of the people are happily running them, it means it works.

In the past my sponsors have given me deals on parts. I got a crazy good deal on my ETS parts and also the FIC parts.

I have stickers on my car. It brings the company more money just like word of mouth does.

What I do before I buy a part is research. I will read about the parts, see if they are reliable and can perform to what I want it to do. Then after the research I will buy it.

I tend to stay away from companies like HKS, ARC, Greddy, because they make parts that are not very good. Tial makes better BOV that can hold more pressure, ETS AMS, Buscher makes better IC and IC pipes for cheaper too.

While we're on the subject of sponsors, how did those of you who have sponsors get sponsored?
