I would hope your not refering to Dejon? IMO their products suck. Idk how those flanges they use seal and not warp when they weld to them, in that perspective now you see how they came up w/ the idea of using SMIC's for FMIC's. What do they care if their products suck or not, they dont have to use them :P .

I wouldn't go as far to say that Dejon's product sucks, but it is deffinately lower quality than other higher priced kits (there is a reason why they are cheaper than everyone else). I would personally never run an intercooler or intercooling piping from Dejon since they use such thin flanges that have been know to have sealing issues. I personally think a few extra dollars is worth paying for 3x thickness flanges. As far as intake piping goes though, you really can't beat Dejon since they offer such a wide variety of pipes to fit a wide variety of setups. Another thing about Dejon, don't use them if you are trying to make a "show car", their powdercoating is low quality...just enough to get the job done. Please nobody take this as me dogging Dejon b/c that is not my intention, I am only stating my opinion. For those on a budget (aren't we all) Dejon is deffinately a good company to look for a wide variety of products from.

If you look @ all the variety of intake they have, 75% of them are completly pointless designs. All you need would be 2.5"(small turbo's), 3" (large turbo's, 2G MAS), 3.5" (GM MAS), and 4" (TSO4 compressor). All the rest are some very ugly designs.
I will agree w/ their powdercoating, i looked @ some examples of their woprk some vendors had on display and was not very impressed.

Dejon Tool powdercoats, not paints. Not the best quality, but oh well.

Either way quit being a cheap ass and buy a FMIC.

By the time you got done ghettoing 1G SMIC's together w/ piping for an extra few dollars you could more than likely have a nice bolt on piece. IMO its not worth the hassle. Why take 1 POS and combine it w/ a few more to make a big POS?
