I know Tomei makes great parts that work very well, and that you guys are primarily a JDM parts vendor who uses your own products (and I have been extremely satisfied with my purchases from you)
BUT: for the money I am sure that kit cost, that crank looks a bit primitive in terms of finish. Looks like a cast blob. It's not knife edged and doesn't show any signs of being finished or anything. Did they just get their casting so perfect that it doesn't need it? That's secondary to how strong it is, but still, I would have hoped for more.
Thatever, not trying to hate though. I can't wait to see the results from the build. Your Evo is one my my favorites.

I understand there are comparable kits out there with better pricing, but we are testing and using a kit that is new to the US market and hoping to gain feedback and result with this. We will keep you guys up to date as far as reliability and power.
