check the link, there's a video showing that the lift does in fact assist in opening. Seriously, there is no way it's comming back down on you without you closing it.

 

got to say.. those redline folks are really quick.. i received 2 emails from them within minutes after i placed the order.. they wanted to know how i had heard of them and i pointed them to this thread...

 

I'm telling you these guys are great to deal with.

 

They really are great guys. I've had my Redline Tuning QuickLIFT kit on my xA for about 3 months now and I'm still loving it... A+ product from a couple A++ guys.

Some people may have problems drilling holes into thier car but seriously, you aren't ever going to go back to a prop rod after using this kit.

This is on my list of things to get...

 

hrmm...maybe after i order mine i will do a HOW TO: install on this aswell

 

Will it work with a CF Hood? Looks good BTW.

How long is the life of the hood lift? Its nice, but if I am gonna need a stick to prop up the hood a year down the road cause it wore out, I'll pass on the mod. Is their a garuntee, or anything like that? warrenty?....... comes with a block of cheese?

 

4 year warranty

 

4 year warrenty thats cool great mod

 

i like the look of the tein hood dampener better but its about 3x as much lol

 

Excellent! I was hoping that Tein would make a hood damper for the tC like they have for the xB, but they said nope...glad to see that someone else made it! New toy to add!

 

how long does the strut last?

 

Don't know, only had it for 3 days but it's running strong. lol That would be a question for the Redline guys.

 

im going to assume that if it is warranted for 4 years... it wil last atleast that long... i see no reason for these not to last as long as any factory strut.... my 95 grand prix is still using the factory struts...

 

Hello Everyone,
We're happy to see such a positive response to our kit! To answer some of the questions.
We don't use sheet metal screws for the hood for two reasons:
#1 The sheet metal screws wouldn't hold in the thin metal of the hood.
#2 There is not enough clearance between the bracket and the gas spring for a screw.
Yes, our kit will work with carbon fiber hoods. You can read our FAQ at:
http://www.redlinetuning.com/QL-tips.html
Also, our warrenty is 4 years on the kit, but our gas springs are designed and tested for over 100,000 cycles, so they will last much longer. :D

Feel free to ask any questions and I will answer them ASAP.
Regards,
Andreas

Your website's "online manuals" lacks a TC specific manual, but I ordered one anyway.

 

hello redline tuning, i went to your site to see what kits you have for other vehicles but didn't see an acura rsx. my question is, will you be making a kit for that car? thank you in advance.

 

Just bought one and paid for 2day shipping haha... Can't wait to throw it on.

 

I really like that... Why doesn't it come in black...
