never buy (no-name) band uppipe from ebay

today i try to install my vf 23 n replace my perrin uppipe to ebay flex uppipe n the stud on ebay one is off set so i have to drill one bigger hole on the uppipe inlet on the turbo n also that shiity uppipe does not come with stud so i have to spend $20 for studs . just want to warn people do not but shiit uppipe from ebay spend more $$ n buy some good one

the reason i switch to flex uppipe bc i installed a aftermarkt header n that header have some fittment problem so i think the flex pipe would fix

Thanks for the warning. That's a good reason to stick with name brand parts or reputable vendors like we have on i-Club. Even with name brand, we still have to exercise caution because parts can be counterfeit from an unknown vendor.

Please don't defeat the language filter that Alex put into place. You can either type out the word you want to use and let the stars replace the letters, or preferably don't use that type of language at all.
