It says twin tube can resist heat better than monos. Isn't it the complete opposite?

yes, it is, because twins have to radiate through the outer tube, whereas monos radiate straight out into open air, now granted the walls of a mono are thicker to cope with the higher internal pressures of a monotube design

Calm down. I wasn't hating. Sounds like you need to do the research (not me)Mono tubes are less prone to heat than twin tubes and that random company says the complete opposite.

How was I putting anyone down? That is worth pointing out.

someone is very touchy on his suspension choice... It's almost like you called his GF a fat pug or something.

actually an intake is probably the only non-cosmedic thing id buy off eBay, as long as it has the hole for the MAF a pipe is a pipe, its the filter that does all the work, so eBay pipe with a Fujita or AEM filter and youre good to go

that snap looks pretty bad, and while we dont have Double-wishbone suspension (and theu dont have that extra arm) that should go to show, you get what you pay for

yea and the thing was these coilovers cost me $800 like 2 years ago so it wasnt 'cheap" but cheaply made i guess..... hope this doesnt happen to the OP just trying to help.
