For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.

      I called Race Engineering and they said that that price is for a set of 4, turns out that those are the "A-beam" (i think) style which are Carrillo's less expensive option, they're supposed to be just as strong as the "H-beam" rods but they make them in mass quantities in only certain sizees which is why they offer them at a lower price. All the info on the A-beam rods is on the Carrillo website.

      Just a little FYI.

        well that also probly means they are of slightly lesser quality... could still be significantly better that stock, but might be a rod thats only good for n02 or low boost apps... so b4 u pick em up, do a lil more research on how good quality and how much abuse theyre actually built for... i'lv only heard of I and H beam rods... not sure what an A beam rod look like... but thnx 4 the info bro... good to kno Carillo has an "affordable" rod set...

            I've been looking for a set of 'affordable' rods for my H23 prelude which are the same rods a used for an f22. Can you give me the addres or phone number of Race Engineering? I live in the netherlands and could not find them on the internet.

            Thanx and regards,

                  Grrr....stupid Race Engineering...grrr...I tried to order those Carrillo rods yesterday and they told me that they were $182.xx EACH, talked to a supervisor and was told that it IS an ERROR on the website that has yet to be corrected and that the person I talked to before was wrong and would be corrected. Sorry for bad info guyz, might want to try Spark Racing, they have inexpensive rods but I don't know the quality of them. I think I'm just gonna spend the money and get Crower Pro-Billet rods.

                  H23 rods will fit the F22 as well.

                  Good luck, sorry again.

                    Look on their site for any disclaimers regarding typos. If they advertised it, and don't specifically say that they are not responsible for errors on the site, then they HAVE to honor that price. Tell them you want the price, and when they say no again, mention the BBB and possibly legal action. False advertising is a crime, and you WILL win if you take it to court. It'll never go that far though... just make them THINK it will! (I went to school for business and psychology... not a good combination!)

                          An advertised price, unless otherwise provided for (tigerdirect.com has a clause in their terms of sale addressing typos in advertising material) must be honored. They can tell you no and bitch all they want, but if it's advertised and not INSANELY low (like a new car for $2000... missing a 0) it should be covered. Any such ad not honored could be called false advertising, or bait and switch (in a way... get you in for an advertised price and then claim it's out of stock, or wrong). If they know what's good for them, they'll fix the ad, fire whoever did it, and give you your rods at a loss... Or risk paying legal fees, only to give you the rods at that price anyway when you win!
