if you want to debate manifolds or designs - do it in another thread. It doesn't belong in this one.

I enjoy my AJP kit... they have some of the best customer support I have experienced... and not like others that only talk to you before they get your money... I'm talking postpurchase here... AJP FTW!!

before the manifold talk starts in another thread ... let me say this ...

u can't do a top mount cuz u can't remove that metal piece ... it's the only thing that stops water from getting into ur engine bay!!!

if u remove it an replace it with a plastic piece u'll have issues with heat ... then u'll say well use heat shield ... so on and so forth ... why do all that when u can just do a bottom mount or a sidewinder ...

the next thing is how does CN come in with AJP?

the person doing the AJP mani never worked for cybernation ...
ajp never did their own ems like CN ... hondata did it ... if u want to criticize hondata then go ahead ...
no kits have caught on fire, broke or anything like CN kits do ... i've seen CN kit break after 2 months of use ... i had this kit on my car for well over that long without any issue with the kit's hardware.

AJP = overprice but go Full Race ..... this is the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard ...

AJP = overprice .... then Full Race = grossly overpriced = Greddy = Greedy
what people don't realize is ...

Full Race will not give u nearly as much hardware as AJP and neither will Greddy ...
1.the price adds up as u add up all the other lil things that the AJP kit will come with ... fact ...

2.Full Race price = AJP price for less than what u get with the ajp kit ... fact again.

3.full race power = ajp power but u'll have to spend more money to get the other lil things u'll need to run a full race kit ... like gauges, bov, etc etc ... fact.

4.full race has staged kits that will be near 700+ power etc etc ... but all that is with changes in the turbo + WG etc .... You can do the same thing with an AJP kit ...

so where does this ajp = overprice go full race come from .... everyone wants to go full race but it's supposedly the next best thing but half of u won't pay the price ...

even on clubrsx people have gotten sick about everyone saying "go full race" cuz there are other options that do the same thing without he high cost ...

and to address the welds .... NO WELDS WILL COMPARE TO THAT OF FULL RACE!!!! why? cuz full race's welds are ROBOTIC TIG WELDED!!! u cannot compare a hand weld to a robotic weld ... BUT THAT IS NOT ENOUGH TO SAY THAT A HAND WELD WILL CRACK BECAUSE IT DOESN'T LOOK AS GOOD!

when an EMS comes out ... get the full race, add up the dollars for the other parts u'll need .. put it all together then go find urself one of the guys with an AJP kit or some other kit with comparable numbers then report back ...

at this point u can't compare the 2 apart from price ...

Me and you were on the same page craftsmanship wise is enough for me never to buy anything from AJP. Im not throwing dirt on there name theres plenty of people on this site that love AJP i guess its just your choice i would definitely wait for full race even if it doesnt come with all the components that the AJP kit comes with. I would prefer spend my money on quality rather than quantity.

In my case, I was missing a lot of little things that were required to install the AJP turbo kit (granted, you'd be missing stuff with full race as well). It made the install a little aggravating since:

1) You go to put on a part only to find that a piece is missing
2) You determine what is needed and then try to find it
3) Finally locate what is needed, get the part installed and then go back to step one to work on the next part...If you've run out of parts, you'll be thankful

Dont bother with AJP. Dont even compare other products or prices. AJP is the worst company I have ever dealt with, hands down. From price, to quality, to customer service. They are a 3 time looser.

Care to elaborate? Not calling you out...I personally have a VERY low opinion of AJP too...Just wondering what happened?

Why don't you actually write an explanation instead of just this? What did you buy from them? What was the problem? Don't just post something like this and not expect to have to explain yourself.

Its a long story but to make it short I bought a 3" exhaust for $700 and it did not fit my car. AJP agreed they sent me piping that only worked with their turbo kit. They agreed to send the right pipe that same day. Weeks later I called and now they were saying they never agreed to send the pipe and I would have to bring the exhaust to my local muffler shop to be modified at my expense. OR they would sell me a turbo kit that would make it fit. I asked about the stalling issues I had read about and they told me anyone who has stalling issues with the turbo kit does not know how to drive! I knew this was not the case and asked them to just fix their error and get me the parts I needed. They were never sent. Further emails were not returned. Even the manager would do nothing to help me out. I ended up selling the exhaust for a loss of $400 to someone who was willing to modify it to make it work. I have never dealt with a company so unwilling to correct a mistake when they clearly were at fault:Mad:

Do you have any emails where this whole thing took place? Did you ever bring this up on the site? Who did you talk to..... this could have been dealt with on the site.
