Has anyone ever had anything of these chaps before ?

seem to be doing some fairly nice kit at reasonable cost but I've heard a rumor some things on the internet might be lies :boohoo:

Seems promising, proper mandrel bends and tidy welding. Also the exchange rate works well for us.

The literal/part translation is brilliant. :D

As is the case for most things, someone has to take the plunge and be the guinea pig. I guess if it's bought via credit card there is no real risk.

Ive got kwe intercoolers fitted and they're much improved over the oem ones, similar quality to wagners but are bigger. Had no problems either.

Nice little video that, the downpipes look good quality so i might bare these in mind. I cant bring myself to spend the money on miltek units and I just cant help but not trust the cheap ebay ones that have started popping up!

Proper 3" too! Do it BillyGoat, in theory it should see better gains than those running the Miltek race 2.75" downpipes (if you bone up for the CATless KWEs).
No matter where you go, there you are.

5.5" just doesn't cut it in the DP world....

Call me a knob but.....I thought there were issues with fitting 3" x 2 DP's on this car? ie no room for anything over 2,75" x 2.....
Thanks

I bought my intercoolers through this seller on ebay and he's open to negotiation ;-)

I was going to go for the DPs too but needed an exhaust quick time to finish my turbo swap so i went for full miltek decat. With the ICs on top he was offering a good discount.
