This is going to be a living thread where I'll attempt to list several categories of mods as well as the various brands which are actively being sold. I'm going to fill this out as I find time. Please post up any mods that you think should be on this list, or mention any mods which are no longer produced or supported. Prices are not included, as they may change frequently.

IF THE MANUFACTURER HAS A KNOWN ONLINE PRESENCE BUT IS NOT ACTIVE OR DOES NOT HAVE AN ACCOUNT HERE THE PRODUCT ISN'T DISPLAYED!

Damn, tons of stuff to fill in but this will be very helpful to lots of people!
Thanks.

Mostly just limited by time. I've got lots of things to do, fixing errors from site modifications, etc. Not to mention real life!

wouldn't this be much better in excel?

Not when excel isn't indexable by a search engine, no. Don't look at it yet lol. Its ugly and I'm actually fixing a bug with user tagging within the cells.

Not entirely sure how this works but we offer most if not all the products mentioned above (over 80 brands) and can do spool street specials

This thread is obviously heavily under construction. For now, I intend to link to the manufacturer directly, however later on I may consider a method of including any retailers which may be available.

Huge undertaking, but will be beneficial! Maybe it could break off into stickies or sub-sections for the categories with real testing links? For example, dyno charts related to the turbo offerings, etc?

List has been updated and expanded to include many more parts.

If there need to be any corrections, or a manufacturer would like changes to be made or parts to be added, send me a PM and I will make changes as soon as possible.

I think a good addition to this would be some maintenance related items. Like upgraded water pump pulley or other small things that have aftermarket replacements which are upgrades.

Just going off feedback from others, who would prefer this be compiled more as a shop than a static list? I could set it up so everyone could submit items and handle their own payments, etc. Something to think about.
