Great products! Quick turn around. Thanks again.

My fuel system is plumbed with -6an stainless braided hose. It always permeates gas smell in the garage. I have tried 3 vendors of stainless line. Some much worse than others......Nothing worked. It slowly Got worse until I found myself not driving the car due to its noxious smell. I installed the -6an gas line from improved...... No gas smell! Thanks.

The product works great; I think it even outperformed IR's own expectations after I explained what I was using it (the baffle) for--all out track use.

I'm running a Lotus 7 replica on steroids. These cars were originally designed to sport a light weight four cylinder engine in a small, light weight chassis. My car has an LS6; quite a step up over a four cylinder. I use my car primarily for track days, and with its low center of gravity, available power to weight and 10.5" wide Avon A11 compound slicks, the car easily pulls high sustained G' loads during turns. While right had turns on track were never an issue, my LS6, with its owner-installed LS1 pan and factory GM baffle, could not handle oil management during left hand turns. In short, the 20psi low oil pressure warning light would illuminate during left hand hard cornering. I installed the IR aluminum baffle in my pan and kept the oil level at 6 quarts for trackuse. With this combination, my left hand turning woes dissapeared. My last track day consisted of 6 twenty-minute sessions and I ran at MSR Cresson on the 1.7ccw course. Throughout the day, the low oil pressure warning light never illuminated once and oil pressure never dropped below 50psi during sustained high G left hand turns. Problem solved. Thanks IR!

Great product, well engineered.

I bought the trap door oil pan baffle for a gen5 Fbody. Very high quality and obviously well engineered and manufactured and to top it off, manufactured in the USA. When time comes for an external oil cooler setup I will definitely be using Improved Racing products.

Great product great customer service.

Bought this thermostat for a 600+hp 335i and it regulates temperature to a T. The car never had a oil cooler before and even now with 2x 20row coolers the car warms up just as quick. The straight through design is genius and hasn't let up once on track days or everyday on the street . Very happy with this product and have recommended it to anyone in the market for one.

Outstanding products, and customer service.

I purchased the oil baffle and complete oil pan for an engine swap. Everything shipped right away, and the oil baffle fits perfectly. Improved Racing provides great products at good prices, and take care of their customers.

Cheap prices, bad experience

I received my purchase and the boxes were full of holes. One of my products had the finish scraped off all around, another had scratches. I emailed them, and in a nutshell said that's how they generally come when they order GM direct parts. I feel this was a inadequate resolution to my complaint. I won't be ordering from them again because of this.

Reply from Improved Racing

Because the GM factory parts are drop-shipped directly from GM (which is the reason why we can offer low prices), we don't have control over how they are packaged. We responded promptly to the customer's concerns and offered a full refund or to exchange the products. Both of these offers still stand, but the customer did not take either offer. That said it doesn't seem fair to rate our service so low. What more could we do?
