^ Good to hear as well...

I've looked and considered the Kinetix but i just get a bad vibe from them when I look thru their site and read reviews about their parts...

It's already odd enough that they sell g35 parts AND ferrari 360 parts, what a weird combo of things to sell....

wow i didn't know anything about that.. they'll probably slowly get sold along with some other mods that were kind of impulse buys. But i'm happy with them as of right now

I'm not going to worry too much if some guy cracked them because he might of bottomed out really bad.


If there are other stories about this then well meh, I hope mine don't crack on me.

is it true that berks are 200cell vs fast intentions 300cell so the berks make a tiny bit more power?

it should, less cells = more flow (less restriction). also higher probability that you will smell gas fumes if that bothers you.
