Default T1R stuffs. Any reviews?

I was on the evasive website and noticed a company called T1R. How is their stuff? Not to get ahead of myself with expensive mods, but I love the intake from them. Any reviews for any of their products would be cool.

I have 2 friends with their exhausts both have had hangers re-welded because they would just snap off.

I wouldn't consider T1R top-shelf but that's me. I have their camber arms for the si and the bushings aren't that great. Comparative to Skunk2s version1 bushings. Just hard plastic. Needed to be sent some washers so that the arms bolted to the hub right. There was too much space on either side so they sent me just basic washers.

I meant in terms of price, and not so much quality.

Mounts and stuff like that wont fix crappy sweat shop welds. I have never heard of stuff like that happening with HKS, CT engineering, Amuse, I bought HKS because I had there exhaust before and never had a prob with it for 10 years.

change ***** to 8th civic . com

stupid honda-tech, damn **** monopoly banned the worth 8th civic



Honda-tech hater, wont let me put link. wow. lmao

recent weld failure on 8th





Dont get me wrong i think their parts are very pretty and nice looking. But thats not everything. Heard of shocks failing and bad welds. And if the prices were cheap id say go for it, but usually the prices are through the roof.

Like the t1r header WHY? Cost more, and less quality. When you can get a buddyclub header that they copied anyways.
