I like how they are all hating at first but then when they read that you have a metric motor all of the sudden they are impressed. Bunch of d-bags.

lol, the flip after the mention of the MM is hilarious.

The OBX hate is everywhere. I defend my OBX header on my protege all the time. It's got like 150,000 miles on it and is fine!!!!!!!

thats why i dont post in bf.c they think an m3 is the $hit and theres nothing after that, and they get pissed when some1 have a 4banger that smoke them like nothing.

i LOL at the comment about the civic turbo/nos @ 17psi - the guy was like what it means? - means that the lil honda would smoke ur m3 or whatever he drives like it was nothing lol

Yes I like to go over there and get them all upset. I love how recomending a manifold leads to them schooling me on petaling the car and how to drive. Clutch issues. My car sounds good for a 3 cylinder. They have a hard time admitting that the 4 cylinders with a turbo will stomp their holy N/A M3's. I will keep poking at them until the tread gets deleted or locked which happens on every thread I start over there

I had an OBX header on a CRX and it was awesome but...

My problem with cheap Chinese knock offs is that it hurts the performance industry as a whole. Just look at what DDM tunning has done with their coilovers. They steal designs from the real people and then build them to sub par standards, creating an unsafe part and putting the good guys out of business because they can't compete with the price...

I'm an engineer and it really pains me to see all the work that goes into designing these parts and then they just get copied and to a much lesser quality.
Even if it's way cheaper it's still wrong to support these guys..

More reading if interested..

that does raise the point John made, there's no other turbo manifold for the E36 318 so who are they really copying? unless it's some long discontinued part or one that's only available in Europe but either way the OBX would be the best option

Someone stepped in and set it straight so I made "nice". Trader no way I'm, 100% 318ti.org, but I might hoe around over there until they kick me out
