You should be fine with a kit already made, but unless you got plans for changing that later on

Scionizeme: Hahaha sorry man didn't mean to make it sound so extreme, I tend to get carried away sometimes.

Rsingh216: You have a point but if you're going for that wow factor there's nothing like a custom one off kit to set you apart from everybody else.

This is the first I've heard of PSI... they look like... fun

I'm curious how their cost would compare to something like Dezod though.

You adjust by twisting the end of it.(big bolt on the end of it)

Things you will need include
Amazon Amazon
some washers and a hex nut I got from Lowes. It's pretty easy all you have to do is lift your car and take out the old one and put the new one in. Might have to grind a wee bit off the side but no a lot. The biggest pain in the but was finding the right parts to make it all fit.
If you guys have any questions just let me know.
PS. they will have camber kits made exactly for our cars soon hopefully since prototypes are being tested out already. I only got mine since i found the civic ones for $70

There not an exact match but they will work. Different companies are working on some tho after noticing how much demand there is for them right now.

Car is currently in the shop and is being used as the prototype for the UNICHIP that is going to be released for our TC2's ( http://www.unichip.us ). I should have her back on monday and I will have details on the HP gains and info on when it will be released to the public.

Cant wait to hear about this. I was already getting frustrated at the fact there hasn't been one developed. Good job of taking the initiative. Keep me posted, Very Interested!
