I have used some of Omni's suspension components and it was ok. Stay away from their valvetrain! I had some of their valves snap.

that sucks to hear, because i do have there flat valves and they rock..they are partnered up with dual springs in/ex and tit retainers, perfect for my CTR cams

and no problems

Well, their first batch of full coilovers had issues with the collars breaking. They also had a bad batch of clutch master cylinders that leaked and left a few owners stranded. I don't know, I'm sure you'll find some happy customers but my gut tells me to stay away until they get their act together.

they addressed the clutch mc issues and im pretty sure they replaced the defectives ones free of charge. i dont remember exactly but im pretty sure.

heard good things about them, heard bad things. no one is perfect.

omni power is some good stuff. but what u got ot member is omni power was once skunk 2. they used to be one company then they split intoo 2 so if u want to get omni power then do. but other wise just stick with what u got. plus it depends on how much green u got to spend.. u know what im sayin.
