I apologize.

He's only the guy who owns the car which has the first ever Comptech S/C for the Si.

It's a beauty and a brute all at the same time.

BUMP! I'm very excited about Comptech coming back, but is comptech still warrantied from Honda if we put those parts on? I've heard they are, and I've heard they aren't... Also, What will be the difference from the Stage I to the Stage II S/C?

One click away from buying one, just gotta wait until the currency gets better. Paypal is BS. As of this writing, $3695 = $4017 from Paypal. Holy crap.

Current currency from banks = $3850. Talk about profit.

Money order here I come!

Is paypal really that bad now?

^ Unfortunately, yes.
I used their current currency converter table, and I was awed.

Check for yourself. Log in, scroll to very bottom. Click FEES then 'view currency converter'.

This is stupid because they are taking advantage of the fact it's that easy etc.

Doing an inverse conversion, according to paypal:
$1 US = $0.92 Canadian.

This is opposed to our dollar being at 95 cents. They are taking 3 cents profit for every dollar. Bastards.

Oh I thought you meant $3850USD = $4017USD - Didn't know you were converting. That makes more sense now. They do that to prevent abuse. I could convert money all day and make thousands if there was free conversion.

3% is a pretty standard fee from credit card companies. Usually, the fee is just eaten by the vendor and passed on in higher prices. You're always getting screwed when you use any form of electronic payment - somewhere.
