Default This 'JDM > all' Stereotype

Today I was about to order Comptech i/e/h (Xmas gift for myself) and I asked my friends for their opinion, but they said Comptech sucks because they are American. They also think my Neuspeed bars are junk/cheap because it's 'Neuspeed' and associated with VWs.

Can't blame them a little there with the VW bit, :chuckles: but still....geez, it's like they expect me to have Cusco bars. Cusco is nice and all, but I can't rationalize paying $300 cdn for a metal stick that works just a tad better, if even at all, then my Neuspeed.

It sort of sucks at times having uber JDM friends who CAN justify paying $4000 for Amuse titanium exhausts, $4000 Zeals..etc and look down at all the parts that are not JDM.

Anyways i'm hoping I can shut them up if the Comptech parts can really dyno 196-200 at the wheels whereas their JDM mods that cost 10X as much may only give them 10-15. :fawk:
