Gotta love F###ing China.

 

Yeah who doesnt love cheap *** tires that last 200 miles then blow out.......bad candy with lead.......and now EVEN more forgeries.
Damn them!! Boycott!!

 

Damn... I might check mine.

 

They are gettin good with the copies. Thanks for the post.

 

Wow, thats pretty amazing, even in this day and age.

 

yeah, i heard about the ebay ones a couple months ago...i wonder if legal action can be taken against these companies producing fake pumps?

on a side note did you guys know that the holley 255lph pumps are actually just a walbros, but in a different box...i was pleasantly supprised

 

Is this very recent? I think I saw someone mention it a few months ago around the time the phony Tial wastegates and BOV's were beginning to pop up. Those look damn close to the real thing too, stamped and everything. Font on the "Tial" lettering is off though.

How much are they charging for these pumps? A legit walbro goes for what ~$80-100? They said these were less than 25% the price? $20!? ****, can you even get a used genuine Walbro for that cheap?

 

Didn't someone in china try to duplicate the Apexi SAFC?

 

Yup nothing like shipping all the profit overseas. I have a good solution, just buy aermotive pumps..

I'm really surprised the walbro pump suffices on some of these cars..

 

i believe so, also the apexi turbo timer

 

Ah the turbo timer might be what im thinking of.

 

walbro should not have opened that plant in china .. huh

 

do you not understand what is going on here? wtf are you talking about?
