I considered them.

But ended up going with atkins because it was the same price and I'd heared good things about them at the time.

Considering that at least one of the images on their main page is borrowed, I suspect without permission (from racingbeat's website, the one of the rb intake, then the drawing of the combustion cycle), I don't know how much I'd trust them. The site itself looks like something I whipped up in jr. high, and if we can't trust that any of the images are representative of their actual work, I wouldn't touch 'em. The yellow engine looks like they just applied the color to it in photoshop even!

Just go with Atkins or another reputable company. I wouldn't risk that much money on that place.
