That sounds like Alaniz.
Yup that sure does sound like Alaniz. I took me forevert to get my stuff back. I talked with john for over a hour and got a good vibe. He undestand road racing and how the F20 Motors respond to changes. I will be doing a set of cams and ordering the 50MM ITB setup for Jenevy as I am selling my Twm's. I can tell most of the time by talking to a person to what there service is going to be like. You can harp on one bad thing one person did or even a couple given the countless good service that was offered. I myself even at times mess up sometimes. Im sure everyone else can relate to that. But its how you treat your customers if thing do mess up and if for some reason I had a snag, then I feel comfortable it would be taken care of. IMO from talking with john and adam I feel they are a good company and will be buying their product.

I know Hytech headers did wonders for B series Honda motors. I'm sure they have an awesome product. It's definetly got my attention. One thing that hasn't been addressed yet is weight. How much does your header weigh MINES? I'm sure it's heavier than the J's and others because it has more tubing, but how much heavier. Also, are they building a Titanium exhaust or just a regular SS. I'd love to mate your Hytech header up to a T1R 70RT exhaust and see what the gains/weight reduction are like!

I have not weighed it, so I can not say exactly off the top of my head but having installed it I would say its lighter then stock and certainly lighter then anything after market with a cat since it takes up the location of the stock cat. I would have a hard time believing it is even 4lbs heavier then a J's, with the performance though it could have been 20lbs heavier and still been worth it.

well i dont know what to tell you in regards to that. I personally spoke to John on my "first phone call" told him what i was looking for and he personally invited down to the shop to check his work out. Im going friday and will be placing an order for a header and a single 70mm exhuast. Also if i told you i had a negetive experence with Evasive motorsports while everyone else is saying they are so good etc. who would you believe? have i had a bad experience with them? YES i have and IMo its all about what you put in to it and how you research the company for your self and what you think is acceptable and whats not acceptable. I will be more than happy to post my results once everything is completed for my set up
Update on Hytech appointment?
