why dosnt any1 use hks parts
#4
what do you mean? Ive seen plenty of hks parts floating around on peoples cars. maybe not turbos because i believe there are better options out there, but cams, gears, exhaust, intake. they are around trust me. just like ARC, rare but not impossible to find.

Because HKS parts are stupid overpriced because they say HKS on them. Look at their cams, there are much better cams out there that will make more power for less money. With HKS you are paying for a name.

Other companies make better performing products, ex:cams, turbos, intercoolers. HKS makes good stuff, just not the best, IMO not worth the extra cost to have HKS on it. Dynos and timeslips tell the story..

HKS makes quality parts that hold up and do well. However there are alot of options out there. Why would anyone buy an exhaust premade from anyone when you can get one done at most exhaust shops for $300ish?
HKS stuff looks good, performs well, and generally speaking lasts a long time. I've had various parts of their's on several of my cars over the years and never been dissapointed.

Yeah i have had plenty of their parts on my car and have had great results with matching up their products with one another. HKS turbo kit, HKS cams, HKS head gasket, HKS cam gears, HKS kevlar belts, HKS ignition, HKS downpipe, etc. Although most have come off in favor of some sweet AMS stuff :P

I run the DLI 2 onmy car and never had a problem with spark blow out. The new hks cams are alot better then the "old" ones also.
