That's just awful. Sorry you had to pay good money for such junk.
Please tell us what vendor this is. It's not 'talking smack'. It's protecting the rest of us from buying from the same vendor.

Carlos,

i hope you talked to the vendor before posting... you ALWAYS have to give them the chance to right the wrong... also i'd give the mods a "heads up".

It's an LICP from Fighter's Garage. Yes, it is very helpful to all USDM Evo's. I do not believe this is normal for FG, so I think they'd gladly replace it in a heartbeat. Carlos, my buddy MadMsheen (EvoMR.net) has that exact LICP on his MR, but it looked nothing like that. I think you got one that got caught up in a nuclear fallout zone.

More pics. Keep in mind that I don't even have room to install a freaking clamp.

There is no doubt that there is no testing done on this piping at all. Anyone with some logical sense would have build a pipe with enough gap to at least be able to install a clamp securely.

Just in case you can't view the details the gap to install the clamp in less than .4 of an inche. What a disrespectful seller bro!!

This is garbage guys!!

Seriously, I watched "The Hills Have Eyes" tonight, and that LICP reminds me of the deformed nuclear fallout crackmonkeys from the movie - disgusting.
