May I ask what exactly these are pictures of? :oops:

I'm guessing it's the turbo at the bottom of the pic with a pipe leading from it??? And this pipe then goes into the Y-pipe???

I really am trying to learn :)
01 RS4, Milltek, Dahlback Racing rears, RS6 fronts and a few bits to be added.

Also, as I hate driving, my toy to play with - a Honda CBR F Sport

Love the intake pipes! (I want some! - particularly as you can do without the RS4
H pipes with connect to the diverter valves - they are a 100 quid each ex. vat!)

Agree they do look neat, are these clamped to the turbo with silicone hose/clips?

Not so sure about the exhaust manifold, welds don't look like TIG? Could be the photo as it does not look as good as the ones on their site?

You are obviously entitled to your opinion.

However as I have been fortunate to know and work along side some of the finest craftsman in the business - including the design and development of both titanium and incoloy systems (Employed by the Mclaren F1) I have a reasonably good idea about what I am saying.
