if it preforms good then its not a bad product imo. trim the crash beam and make it fit. But still no real data on this IC. Just because it looks like a perrin or another brand does not mean it preforms the same.

Maybe it's just me.
actually i bought the car like this...i didnt paint ****...and i got it for a steal because no one wanted a lime green evo...

Hey Tim,
I sold you a Spirit of the competition decal and you told me that you have not received it, but I clearly see it on your hood. Why didnt you tell me that you received the first set before I sent you another set? That's not cool man especially since I sold it to you at a much cheaper listed price.

Did you buy your car that color?? I have a very good feeling if your car was not green, this thread would have about 3 responses total, all talking chit. I mean, you installed a ebay intercooler and look how many people have posted. People install expensive ones and no one cares ,and thats expected its just an IC. With that said your car is bad *** i love the color. What is the color called?

Honestly not trying to hate man I love the car and the color. Just stating my opinion on OBX stuff because they make crap parts for hondas as well when i used to be in that scene and honestly surprised they even attempted to enter the evo market.
