Lolllll I bought two generic copies of the $100 Mishitmoto for $40 total... happy with the cans; even happier that I didnt give those Mishitmoto scam clowns a dime.

Same here! Mishimoto must think we're pretty stupid to not notice they are just branding generic stuff.

Mishimoto has great customer service! Not sure why everybody dogs them. Never had an issue with them. But hey, What ever puts the cream in your Twinkie.

Also: Their products for our platform seem to have a high failure rate. They rebadge cheap generic products, mark the price up 5x, and actually put out marketing information on all the 'engineering' they put into them. Now you know why everyone dogs them. Glad you have had good experiences, but you are only a sample size of one.

I am always interested to hear how their so-called customer responds when the oil cooler thermostat o-ring disintegrates while driving down the highway dumping all the oil and grenading the motor. They'll definitely send out a new $0.50 o-ring

the mini's that mishimoto ripped off (included in the video above) seem to be doing OK with boost.
