I wouldn't say their products are bad. But from my experience the customer service is. I had some issues with an order, they didn't help and wouldn't return my e-mails (their listing was wrong). I now have a set of $200 springs that I use as paperweights.



Here is what I bought/got screwed on http://kfxperformance.com/ixxocart/p...-3883-177.html



despite what the ad say's these springs ONLY fit the Kia Rio.



headers for the 1.5 @ sharkracing.com $430

Those headers are for the 1.5L NOT the 1.6L.

1.5l DOHC headers will fit on a 1.6l DOHC.



1.5l/1.6l DOHC headers will not fit on a 1.5l SOHC.



I think RPW was the last place I saw making a 1.5l SOHC header...and that was YEARS ago now.

So are the SR headers better than the ones KFX offers or are they $200 more for no reason?
