Skunk2 is proud to introduce its Alpha Valve Spring and Titanium Retainer Kit for Honda's K-series engines. Each kit includes Skunk2's high-quality dual valve springs and race-proven titanium retainers that are the result of nearly two decades of racing and engine building experience. Each Alpha Valve Spring is manufactured exclusively from super-clean, chrome-silicone wire milled in Japan. By using inner and outer springs mated together through a slight interference fit and with differing frequencies, Alpha Valve Springs are able to prevent valve float and maintain valvetrain stability at engine speeds in excess of 10,000 rpm. Skunk2's industry-leading Alpha Titanium Retainers are designed to significantly reduce valvetrain mass, resulting in more horsepower and improved valvetrain stability. Similar to Skunk2's already popular Pro Series Titanium Retainers, Alpha Titanium Retainers feature radius-cut edges for additional rocker arm clearance and reduced weight, strategically positioned lightening grooves, and reduced overall heights for better valve seal clearance and even further weight reduction. Alpha Titanium Retainers are manufactured using the latest 3D CAD (Computer Aided Design) and FEA (Finite Element Analysis) to ensure that each is optimized for strength as well as for reduced weight. Skunk2 engineers then test and prove their designs on the engine dyno as well as the race track. Once approved for manufacturing, only medical-grade titanium that's been ultrasonically inspected and certified is used. Following CNC machining, each retainer is then individually inspected to ensure proper hole diameter, taper, and that each are free from machining defects to ensure proper installed valve spring heights and pressures.

This company lies to you. Ordered a 02 sensor from APPD for my C7 Vette. Paid the highest possible courier service for the fastest possible shipping from Newcastle to France. I needed the part urgently. Ordered at the weekend and called them Monday to confirm all was in hand and explained the part was required urgently. Response from APPD yes we've recieved the order and will ship as soon as its been processed. Called every day for the next 7 days to be told yes its been shipped and this is the shipping number. Turned out it took them till Friday ..5 days later to post it and then the package lay at the courier another week or so. APPD lied to me throughout this whole transaction. The package cleared customs in 2 days and should have been with me in just over week and not over 4 weeks. APPD offereed the postage refunded after I had to start a PAYPAL dispute.. This should have been a straight forward simple part delivery.When it goes wrong you shouldn't lie to your customer. A serious compay would refund the customer not try to fuzz the truth and blame everyone else. I refused the postage delivery refund so you can buy some honesty pills and discuss with your team how to avoid more negative service feedback. If your thinking of ordering parts from APPD scroll on and find another supplier. You dont need or want the hassle of dealing with these people.

Over a month waiting on parts and all I get is it will scan soon week after week. Reordered from US so I could finish build and same parts arrived in one week. Waiting to see if they will refund??

placed an order for parts 13th of feb, all listed in stock, got shipping update for label created on the 16th of feb. I have still not received what I ordered and paid for, no updates. I have been getting the same generic answer "order will be fulfilled today" for nearly 2 months now when trying to enquire. Quite disappointing as I have been unable to finish off my car due to waiting on the final fuel system parts for over 2 months now.
