Not it.

My only feedback was that he doesn't obey the safe word.

ha ha i realize they are expensive parts after searching around but most people only complain its too expensive and dont say whether they perform well

I can say that all the parts fit perfect without rattles etc, clean gaps for the hood etc

i almost want to sell the hood but i dont see too many cars around with it so I may justkeep it to seperate myself from the locals

I have the WORKS TBE, and I've been very happy with it. If your looking for the lightest or most powerful TBE, the WORKS is probably not the best choice. It is very well made, it is definitely one of the quieter TBE's, it has OEM like fit and finish and it doesn't have a fart can exhaust. If you want to save five pounds and maybe find a few extra HP then go with something else.

I've heard speculation that the works dp has slightly better transient response and low end tourqe, due to it not being a full 3".

Of course add other mods and that becomes a less meaningfull comparison.

There are a few JDM manufacturers not making a full 3 inch, and get laughed at for that very reason. If your comment has any truth to it, maybe we should rethink why some companies do things a certain way. Too bad the masses dont agree

WORKS makes a 3"(76mm) downpipe. I seem to recall that they used to make a 70mm, but the only one currently listed on their website is the 76mm.

The speculation is false, any extra backpressure after the turbine wheel will make it work harder to push the gasses out thus increasing lag
