Garbage. I just used some sheet metal to build all my ducting that is 0.4mm thinner than that.

2mm is what cheap DOWNPIPES are made of.

Well fine then way to show me up.

They're really good at making an eye candy product but when it gets down to the yard with the boys it wont last a day.

yea, what most the guys said... lets say buy it if you want the SS look. boost high enough and ask yourself where the turbo went.

If you think I was showing you up, you need thicker skin pal. I was making a point as to what most people feel 16 gauge and 2mm wall thickness stuff is good for.

Oh, my intercooler piping is 2mm too.

yeah... except you can't find them anywhere.

the HKS one is discontinued and I've never seen the greddy one available outside the turbo kit...
