you're just paying for the name. it's actually a less efficient fmic.

direct fits aren't really worth the money, they don't make enough of a difference to justify it.

 

if the crash bar is an issue for you, you could always look at the Perrin. it's huge and comes with a replacement "crash bar". i haven't ever found out if it's any good or not, no one i know or read about has it. maybe cause it's 8-900 bucks. i hear someone is making crash bars to fit other fmic's but i don't know how they fit either. it seems smart to me to keep it seing as how our computers are only protected by the radiator.

 

i live in omaha, ne close to chicago.. i have the agp and crash bar is taking out.. looks real nice..dont spend the money to get the perrin...

 

if you want a crashbar order one from slowboy, no need to spend $800 on a perrin
