Anyone ever use these? Are they a good fit?

No it's not Turbo'd
I bought those as well, but also ordered sparco fibreglass woven silicone couplers, and am waiting for them in red (backordered) and haven't tried to put them on with the blue couplers...

I got them and the top part fit fine with no prob what so ever, the bottom.... well it didn't fit so great. I still haven put it on but it look like it will go on with some elbow grease.
It should fit the stock air box just fine (at least the top part) and lets face it if your using the stock air box you cant even see the botom pipe.
I use an old school greddy intake. I think it was worth the money.
If you cant get it to fit you can sell it back on ebay!

i have the pipes as well.And yes there were some serious issues with the kit.
The primary turbo pipe sucks for fitment.The secondary is a good fit.The couplers arent even silicone.I think its just blue rubber as they have hardened up already from the engine bay heat.And to top it off the couplers are too big.I was able to use two of them but had to buy some smaller ones for the rest of the install.Im seriously thinking of buying the rx7 store ones.But 200 bucks for those two pipes is kinda steep.

I bought them when they were first on ebay for $$$ ouch! They worked fine for me since I just attached K&N 3" cylinder air filters to them an d made my own heat shield. The reason why the bottom pipe doesn't fit with pipe's the cold air boxes is because the bend is not tight enough. You might be able to get a longer couple to make it work.

I got 'em and they work great with the custom cold air intake I made using the stock air box. Mine was a tight fit and they are more like a rubber coupler not silicon. Who actually had some that crack from the heat? Mine are fine.
