it's better to completely disregard comments like that "Mugen is garbage." It's obvious that the person making the comment has no idea what he's talking about, and in life in general.

Before making statements such as this, you should really do some homework.

Mugen is not just some run of the mill aftermarket parts company. Mugen preps, tunes, and manufacture parts and engines for racing series ranging from Formula Nippon, to F3000, to SuperGT, to F1. They aren't some company that just makes intakes, or exhaust. Their racing history goes back pretty far...

1988, Mugen powered car won 4 of the top 5 places in Japan F3000 championship.
1989, Mugen powered car won the European F3000 series
They were the exclusive engine supplier for Formula Nippon up till something 2005.
Mugen powered Jordan F1 won in 1998, 1-2 finish actually.
In SuperGT, they also have had various levels of success in the series.

So... I donno about you, but it's clear to me that Mugen has participated in the top levels of open wheel and sports car racing around the world... not exactly "garbage" in my books.

Mugen is garbage? Don't think so

EDIT: It was irresponsible of me to say what was originally posted

ahh.. this is what i was missing from the boards.....lol

All Mugen products I've owned in the past were, by far, the best quality of ANY products I've owned in the import scene.

Skunk 2= too loud, will slightly lose low end but make more on the high end

Greddy= is decent but you lose some low end hp.

Mugen=power throughout the whole powerband.

My main point is...MUGEN is not garbage!!!!!!!!!
