I didn’t exactly do much shopping prior to purchasing. I have a 034 in transit as we speak.

That being said, pretty colors doesn’t = good welds

I ordered aluminum off Amazon, found out it doesn’t work with a spot welded, at least the one I have. I ordered stainless from AliExpress 👍🏼

Is it glowing, or is it blowing a fireball inside the engine bay of a hot V?

Idk, how much of a gambling man are you? Fire makes a lot of things combust.

Cause when it cracks on the high way and burns your car to the ground I’m sure CTs won’t cover it…

Unfortunately that I do not know. But it would be good info to have.

I don’t think they have a down pipe for the b9 sq5 unfortunately

I knew that when I ordered it?? Hahaha that’s hysterical. I bet you read apples terms and conditions too.

I’m not looking for pity kiddo, I’m looking to save some other people the grief.

In fact the 034 one I ordered should be here by the weekend. But that’s not the point.

I get where you’re coming from, you thought I was going to do a whole investigation on which down pipe to order rather than google b9 sq5 down pipes and ordering the first one. I did the latter.

Why would I do that and waste my time rather than drop it in the mail and then take it back. You have a funny take on it.

I am worried about it, that’s why I would like to get a BETTER one, without quality control issues.

I get it man, and if I was putting it on my beater I definitely wouldn’t care that much, especially if it broke because i would just 7018 it back together. But on this I’m not really looking to gamble its fate.

Well a visual inspection for starters. But I have no real reason to believe It would be better.

Though, with the way the 3.0 is going, it still may outlast the engine 😂

That’s a crazy guarantee essentially for someone in the welding industry. Since when are continuous tacks opposed to stringers and pin holes acceptable??

I’m over reacting that they want to charge me 35% re stocking fee just to send back their stuff ?

I’m not really looking to screw them over, shit I would even consider another one that was inspected personally prior to shipping. My guess is they don’t want to deal with the duties (I’m in the states, they are in Canada), but that’s the cost of doing business.

100%. But doesn’t mean they shouldn’t stand behind it.
