yes its like buying NIKE over walmart classics. You are payin for the name. Alot of their stuff is built and engineered for looks as well. I aint gonna lie if your engine bay is full of ARC, then you will have some sexy SH*T. But you will pay for it. It works just as well as alot of other companies but its Japanese engineered and it looks really good.

Alot of my engine bay assesories is ARC and it looks good.

No doubt ARC looks Good. Really good. Lots of YEN to look good. To be honest the looks are what even made me interested in their stuff. As far as getting laid ... too late I'm married. She is getting jealous of how i look at the car though

yeah my wife does too....lol she doesent understand that another evo owner is automatically a friend in a way...........

I like my Perrin TBE. I got it mainly for the muffler. Its nice and deep and not too loud during idle. But when you get on it man she gets loud. No restrictive issues either. Good damm exhaust for the buck.

But beware if you get the JDM rear bumper it wont fit. I had to cut about 3 in off my muffler pipe in order for it to fit. No biggie though just caught me by surprise.

plus since their stuff is made in Japan, the retailers who sell it in the states have to pass the shipping costs onto the consumer. It's pricey, but the quality is awesome. Pretty much everything in my engine bay is ARC and the **** is pimp, but that's pretty much where it ends. If you got the money to spend go ARC, if looks doesn't really matter to yea, save your money and put it towards someting more usefull.
