The intercooler is to big to front mount on our cars and the manifold welds bust easy my freind wasted his money on this kit not worth $10 imo just buy a trusted kit will save money in the long run.

WHAT ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT? This kit is awesome!!! You'll get way more than you expected...A NEW ENGINE! (that's what you'll need if you try to bolt this on a push 25psi like it says)

Looking at those specs About the only noticible thing I c is the godspeed intercooler. They are known in the Honda and Acura aftermarket world. Every thing else is unknown?

We;re not trying to bash you mate just don't take that chance. Wouldn't you rather trust a product that has been tested and known to work. Anyone could have just fabbed up that kit and say it fits a d17. Save your money and buy dezod or tsi, if not theres like 10 used kits all under 2000 in the for sale section. A used kit is 1 million times better than those ebay kits.

On another note can someone please make a thread for noob frequently asked questions!!!! And sticky that bish.

Don't take offense that comment was to make a thread for new members that come on and will ask the same question week after week. It would just be easier to sticky a thread that they could find as soon as they log on. I know its a pain to search for stuff these days. If it makes u feel better I'm a noob too.
