I need to know if it is worth buying. Also if there is any problems with it.

It is very hard to install, tons of modification to make it fit right, and it wont benefit you unless your pushing 400+ hp basically... it sucks, just like venom's NT fuel rail sucks ass too...

yeah the intake manifold is a waste unless you are pushing big hp and don't mind shoehorning it into the engine bay. Sure, Venom brags about how their civic gains 40hp with the manifold, but you gotta remember that's a 400+hp turbo car which stands to gain a lot more than an NT would. For the 500 bucks you would spend on that manifold, you'd be better off getting an entire nitrous system imo.

as well as the Venom control module or VCM 400, i was told and also read in a thread awile ago it does nothing for our cars, cept reposition the throttle, so it seems like you are gaining HP but it just allows more airflow in your intake, by making it seem like your into the pedal more then you are.

The Venom 400 is a POS. It tricks the PCM into thinking the air intake charge is colder than it is, which causes the PCM to dump more fuel through the injectors.

Here's a thread from Neons.org... where I hang out 'cause my car is well, a Neon. It seems to be the only thread at the moment. This topic usually pops up every week or two over there.

Personally, I wouldn't go with Venom anything, but that's just my opinion.
