I say save the $2,000 and go forced induction later down the road. And yes I think the veilside body-kit would look weird not ugly, with a mazdaspeed wing. Also I wouldn't get the unorthodox pulley set because you won't gain much.

it probably is legit, but keep in mind it's a replica kit so you don't know if the fitment is going to be exact and the quality usually isn't as good compared to the original MS kit.

Q....

Just the way molds work, this stuff is usually really thick in the middle, and fairly thin at the edges - where the tabs are. If you get one with all it's tabs, you're lucky.

Real MS also comes factory painted and guaranteed to match, something that will cost you LOTS more on your RubberMaid lookalike.
