I wont comment on the unit you have listed from ebay, I will say I strongly suggest you consider a unit from us or even another sponsor here over it. Just advice IMO. Always remember when looking at prices that if it sounds to good to be true it likey is. And either of us sponsors stand behind our products even in performance use.

It's difficult to look at a photo of a transmission and say, "yea, that's a good tranny". And just because they specify the components they use does not mean the tranny is up to par.

I'm only going to provide my PERSONAL opinion and should only be taken as such. I would avoid them. First off, they dont have a "store front". The only "store" I found was on ebay showing all the various parts they offer. Most of all those are off the shelf and can be drop shipped.

Secondly, when I browsed their "feedback" section - the majority of their feedback is from folks who purchased low-dollar parts and for transmissions for vans and such - not from folks installing to a performance car. I also noticed "duplicate" thumbs-up posts from the same person - in one instance, there must have been 6-7 "positive" posts from one person!

Thirdly, and I probably shouldn't pick on this, but their "technical write up" is horrendously riddled with faulty grammar, misspellings, and so forth. I pick on this because it means they personally show no attention to detail and don't have a sense of review - that can reflect on their work ethic. If you want to portray your business as one that shows some "intelligence", then do so. I understand that some folks can't articulate effectively, and if you can't, then find someone that can.

They quite possibly build a good transmission, but I have my doubts.
