i think its because you need to get the mating surfaces to a mirror finish, and the people that hate on it are the ones who dont do it properly.

true, when your head gasket take a poo, you need to know which size to buy, and take your head to machine shop for inspection, and installing new head studs is a must.

i don't like them because they only had the 88mm version avail. for a long while. I've thought I've heard that they'll release the 86mm one, which would be cool.

Still going to run Apexi tho.
