Default Who is Dave Hickman?

I was searching on ebay for some pistons and his name came up. He has a line of custom pistons that he's selling on ebay. From the ebay ad, he's supposed to be a pretty reknown racer, but I don't really follow the scene too much so I don't know. I checked out his website and it's obvious he's selling Mugen and Jun-copied headers but it's not mentioned in the ad. Just curious if he's legit. I think he's claiming to be the fastest b16-powered with a 9.4x @ 14x.. Website: DH-racing.com

the 180 hp b16 was my friends motor. the graph on it was terrible, he had to rev that thing upwards of 9500 to get in the powerband. it went 13.2 on slicks in an EF hatch.
