really? well im going to take your word for it...I've got their gauges that i got for free

You've got an ITR motor, just get OEM valves from Honda, dont half ass your motor, its way to good for that. OEM valves are perfect for your build.

I know you're in a hurry to get up and running again, who wouldnt be, but do it right the 1st time, so there isnt a second time.

Yeah, your one of the guys here in the states, what do you think of APC products?? OBX is stuff of the same quality (not very good).

When I first got my ITR swap it didnt come with the header. We slapped on a OBX header that was sitting at the shop and not two weeks later it cracked at the flange. I didnt bottom out or anything, it just fell apart. Its kinda funny now, but back then it wasnt. :lol:
