I think your caps button is stuck or something...

And to answer your question, I don't like anything from HKS, I thing they are overpriced and aren't any better than everything else you can get out there.

Ball bearing turbos are good because they spool faster, but they are unrebuildable, meaning that if you get dirt in them, you strip the bearing and have to buy a whole new turbo.

There is a post a while back and in it there was a link where some dude conducted a test with the Blitz, HKS, APEXi, and KN&N filter. All of them pretty much had the same increases in HP, but the Blitz was the worst in keeping dirt out. The order was like Apex, KN&N, HKS, Blitz
