Well our new valvetrain valve springs, retainers are here in stock, and I was wondering if I should open them or not?

These are new items we have brought in from SuperTech for the D17 crowd to offer a slightly cheaper solution to the Crower VS&R

No, I get what your driving at. It is more cost effective for the end user. Simple as that. The quality and integrity of the components is just as good as Crower. To prove, I am installing the SuperTech valve springs in my IS300. If that isn't proof, I do not know what is.......

We decided to have these valves black nitride coated to sweeten the deal.
