"This Velocity Stack is exactly the same that HKS Sells for over $200.00 HKS Part #1499-RA038. Same Quality and Finish for a Fraction of the Price!!!! "

Really, fraction of $200 eh?

Re: Am I missing something here?

I messaged the guy about his awesome deal. Though I wish I would've went on about how good of a deal it was, instead of being like WTF.

A nice fraction, such as 385/100. What a deal. I'd love to pay 385% of the normal price.

And I thought I over paid for a real piece of HKS velocity stack brand new for $120.

I wonder what the return policy is on that. if i don't get wealth and power its not working as expected and can be returned? Would this be considered a manufacturers defect?

I don't know what you're talking about? I bought one and it granted my wish:



Saved over $600 by not buying the stack directly

Re: Am I missing something here?

The sellers name is "Speedmotoring". I wonder if that is another alias for Slowboy Racing?
