theres plenty more but some of them were "wear" items that wore as they should even though the consensus was the products would fail.

Some stuff that has give me alot of problems:
AN fittings not machined right
Autometer tachs (went through 3 of em before i got one that worked)
oil return lines(i finally went with a factory GM turbo return line that i had left over)
Vacuum lines bursting on wastegates
vibration or heat related wiring failures


anyway i figured id post which products that have exceeded my exptations and such, whats yours?

Things that have failed me :
1- my car
2- my patience(sometimes)(actually most times)

Things that have not failed me:
1-Tsing Tao beer while working on the car
2-The tiny little craftsmen adjustable wrench smaller than a pack of cigarettes
3- Me knowing that my car will be done one day and I have good friends to help
