SolRayz · 02-22-2004, 06:47 PM

Ehhh, i don't know about it. It looks okay, but it could be a DC SS knock off too, there's no way of telling. It says they're made of the "finest materials available" but it doesn't give any details as to what kind, flange sizes, collector size, etc. I wouldn't even think about buying it unless I at least knew more about it. Then, I'd have to see some dyno graphs.

looks to me to be a DC SS copy.

almost, looks like the primaries are closer to being equal though, and the merges are alot cleaner. It's kind of tempting because I've heard of Top Speed before. And I've heard alot more bad about DC than about Top Speed.

anything is better then DC every 2 weeks it finds another way to rattle

justanotherlude · 02-23-2004, 09:20 PM

Well, on ebay they are also selling an "N1" style exhaust made by Topspeed. Check on ebay for it.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEBWA%3AIT I was talking to the company, and they said they are an authorize TopSpeed Dealer. So I guess if you guys want some TopSpeed Intakes

Short Ram

By the looks of it, it looks beneficial.

Well no one seems to have taken the risk on Topspeed products. Then again, you never know. This stuff could be quality. Every company has to start somewhere. I think I might end up buying it because you can't expect me to buy a DC header for twice the price after all the crap I heard about it. It cant possibly be any worse! I will wait another couple of days before I buy it in case someone reads this thread and warns me not to.

i3luemrld · 02-23-2004, 11:33 PM

cool let us know how it is

MidNiteMysT · 02-23-2004, 11:33 PM

yea, that sounds like the best idea. although, i would still get the dc sports because its a more recognized name. actaually, i already have.

justanotherlude · 02-24-2004, 12:42 AM

Actually the Topspeed company I think is from Japan.

Initial Lude · 02-24-2004, 06:31 AM

^^ yeah its jdm

siklude · 02-24-2004, 08:42 AM

justanotherlude and initial lude are right, top speed is a JDM company

SolRayz · 02-24-2004, 11:23 AM

So how do you guys know that this is a JDM company? Is there a website? I can't find one.

apocalypse · 02-24-2004, 12:28 PM

I was checking out there site (thanks Scott) and I found an intake for our ludes that Ive never seen before! Anyone have an intake like this?

G_Loc · 02-24-2004, 06:33 PM

I saw that intake on a lude that was hitting very high hp numbers. I think it was a 5th gen, but it looked exactly like that one....
