Review: Couple days after install the rotor shattered into peices! Cap seemsgood, but use better quality rotor. The plastic is cheap.
And to be honest the sparking you can see within the cap isn't very bright and exciteing....

I was pushing it a little bit that day but not that bad. I wasstoppedat a redlight next to a mustang and wanted to push it a little bit, so I went up to 6000 rpms, shifted quickly, and as soon as I got into second it staggered and bogged,like it was running on only two cylinders (guy in the mustang must of been laughing his ass off). So I had to putter to the side of the road where it died and wouldn't start back up. I was freak'n out because at first I thought I had blown my engine. when I took the cap offpart of therotor along with the rest of it's bitsand pieces fell everywhere.

So overall for the price and quality.... not impressed at all.

Damn, did you get pics of everything?

that sucks. this is why you should use stock ignition components

Nope sorry didn't get pics, I'm sending the cap and part of the rotor to get my money back.

In a way I still want to use the cap because it is kind of cool, but I question it's intergrity since the rotor failed.....

Kind of a bummer but you live and learn.

I hope it all works out for you man. Try to get a video of it running. I would love to see it.

I've got the summit cap/rotor and wire kit and it has the transparent cap too, but mine has held up much better than yours.
I always thought Mr. Gasket was a quality company but i guess they haven't got the sport compact scene up to par. I hope you can get your money back.

i got one and love it. did you use the rotor with the set screw. mine came with 2 rotors.
