I have seen the pics but his doesn't look like it belongs since it is so pretty. Sapph's literally looks like it came from the factory like that and just rolled off the assembly line.

@johan's Harrop looks 100% OEM. Someone even missed it at a tech inspection.

Looking down, "Ok, stock. Nothing to see here."

"Ummm... That's a supercharger in there."

"Ohhhh!"

That's true. Zeal86 is crazy shiny. JR SC is nice and all... but intake pipe's bump weird me out.


I think, Edelbrock SC looks more factory looking to me.


or AVO Turboworld's turbo is hidden well and looks factory looking.

Harrop SC do looks clean and stock looking for sure... just those 4 pipes coming out looks weird. If they can clean or hide those from the back instead of front, I would say looks OEM for sure.

Is that a size large? Sleeves look a little short, but not too bad.

I thought so too but it only looks odd if you already know what the stock engine looks like.

IRL, I got over it in 2 minutes.

I still haven't seen in person, so maybe my opinion will change after seeing it in person

Yeah shoot, forgot to mention the size. It's a large.

I'm not sure what it is, but I think that AA has somewhat brutal QC, some of the shirts (like this R34 one) fit me, in my opinion, perfectly. I have another one (think it's called The Japanese Classics) fits roughly the same, but the sleeves are hella tight. Then I have some others that just seem super small.

I like the brand, so I just buy more when I notice that a shirt has overstayed it's welcome, so to speak.

Thanks for all the info. I would've insta-ordered the Nurburgring one, but I'm not a huge fan of AA shirts. Just not a big fan of their quality.

I'm biased because he invited me to the installation.

That's fair. Can't blame you on that count. I get a solid 7-8 months out of them, but I wear them more than the average bear, since I pack light while travelling for work.
