[QUOTE="Juiced46, post: 15451169, member: 11519"] Everything LOL. On3 is outsourced chinese made parts. Most of the time their stuff is inconsistent. Parts do not line up, Vband flanges warped or do not seal. Piping modification needed etc etc. Yes, its cheap and it looks nice in a photo. Their turbos are trash, knockoff wastegates and BOVs. Cheap intercooler. It is all crap. Can you run 8s and 9s on it? Probably. But that does not mean the quality of the parts are good. The HP kits are crap too, especially the early run units. To say people did not have an issue with them, they are lying. I owned an HP kit. I can tell you first hand quality was terrible. Piping rubbing steering components, not fitting, rusted very easy, they used a flex mid section, drainback issues. Did people make them work? Absolutely. Did guys go fast on them? Yes they did. But to say there is no issues with the kit, that is very very false. There is no perfect "kit" Yes you have the big names like HPP, Hellion, CG and On3. They all have their flaws. None are "perfect". CG Fab is good quality. It is far from complete and needs fabrication to be finished. HPP way too expensive. Also can use some fabrication to finish and just way to much $$$ Hellion, probably the best fitting kit with zero modification needed to make it work out of the box. But far from optimal and needs fabrication to optimize it. Smaller intercooler and cold side. Needs to be converted to blow through. No forward facing headers and (more piping) etc. On3, I would just throw it in the garbage. Your best bet to do it "correct" would be to use a local fabrication shop and have them make you something. Start with something like CG's manifold or hotside and build the kit to fit your car. It may be a little more expensive but it will be done CORRECTLY. You can go fast on any kit. That does not mean anything. I have seen 7-8 sec cars that are hacked together, falling apart and down right dangerous. They get the job done with crap quality parts, but I wouldn't call that a success. The people that say "I have no issues with a kit" are flat out lying. [/QUOTE]
