saw it last year in their catalogue, and was impressed, unfortunately they note that it will not hold up to street driving, and that is where most of my action takes place.
the payouts at our events are to small to make racing worthwhile.

I looked under the Impo civic hatcback that goes 9.50's in the quarter and they had them on their car. Try contacting Impo Performance, I believe they are in Pa or MD area. If it was $ per HP I rather invest into somthing else.
