I was surfing through another forum , and i wish to share this link to the others
All these while , we always wondered Pipercams in Malaysia ? woah mitsubishi 4g1x got piper ? woah kancil mira engine also got Piper ? finally pipercams posted out in their site and they are taking action on it. Kudos !! , if its matspeed then its matspeed , if its PZ then its PZ , if its Crow then its Crow , so dont simply use Pipercams name for ur own product wakakaka, here goes the link and article

PIPER CAMS PRODUCT ANNOUNCMENT FOR SOUTH EAST ASIAN CUSTOMERS

We have recently been informed of a spate of counterfeit cam shafts bearing the name of Piper Cams or Piper Cams Australia being sold throughout South east Asia . Specifically these cams are sold for the Proton / Mitsubishi 4G15 - 1.5L engine . Piper Cams has not produced blank cams for this engine. Piper Cams ONLY produce cams here in the UK from our own factory. If you are at all unsure if the product you have bought or about to buy is genuine please do not hesitate to call our sales team directly on 0044 1303 245 300 and we will be happy to guide you through identification. The picture at the top of the page is of the counterfeit cam boxes, the picture at the bottom of the page is the genuine article.

heard that somehow the latest duratech cams claimed made by BC also fake..
but still need fact to prove it (x remember where i read the article b4)
BC does not produce any specificic 1.8L mits model instead of their proudly acclaimed DSM machine and few other recognized model..

it's the same case-to-case happens with a lot of debate about e-bay item (fake/imitation) vs original products
but to sell this fake/imitation items with similar/just slightly lower price of the real goodies for me is a BIG no..no
PLUS..having a misleading info and cheating the customers by claiming it as an original product
would be a betta and honest way if just openly declared those fake/imitation items to market/future buyers as some of us may adopt the concept of "as long as it works..who care if it ori's or not.."

not sayin the Duratech is a fake cams..but claimed was made even in the market place section it is produced by BC
regardless the box sayin it's made in USA..hell..even some of the top brands manufactured their items somewhere in China etc due to cost saving..cheaper workforce bla..bla

perhaps the main point is to come clean and stated clearly wether the product is genuine or based on fake/imitation model..that's all!

the rest is up to consumers wether to buy or to use it or not..but ethically, the fact that it remains WRONG to imitate/duplicating/faking the original items and yet claimed the bogus product as genuine,even sell it with a same/lower price and spreading a misleading info out of it :burnout:

Power - Punchy definitely and if it weren't for the less direct CVT transmission, this 1.5L turbo Civic could've passed off as a sports sedan. Like if it had a DCT instead. Nevertheless, the 174ps / 220nm L15B7 lump is a gem of an engine, has good response and provides very decent acceleration all day anywhere.

Drive - This is easily the best part of the Civic. In most scenarios the ride is refined, grown up, executive like and well damped...
