    ;D
    I'll likely support the company that originates the product; it's more likely to be a USA based company.

    If we don't buy American products then we hurt ourselves by cutting down manufacturing stateside.

        You support American labor - I'm pretty sure your cylinder heads are not shipped off to china to be knocked off and done

          wat, it isn't cost effective to do anything that you just said. He "supports" US labor because it is his company.

            Most BOVs are so simple. IMHO the only merit to the argument against replicas is the copying of the external design. Same specs != replication



            You wouldn't say Michelins are replicas of Dunlops because they come in the same size, shape, and color.

                thanks^ the splitter is made out of ABS plastic, it connects all the way to the factory undertray below the belts.

                Decided to share some pics of the KAMAK BOV because its awesome.

                  deleted the ICV, used idle advance to get me a nice stable idle in all driving condition. Turned down the boost until I was able to go WOT into 3rd gear, that ended up being at 15-16psi. Also mapped in a nice little pop on the shifts above 5k rpm just because I was bored.

                        got one side done today, in the little free time that I had.
                        easy install but I no longer want to use my adapters as its just overcomplicated to remove and install the rotors.

                                Question is where can you get a quality lightweight 17in 4x100 wheel that wider than 8 inches? Its hard to find these it seems, Ive been looking as well.
