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.
This is garbage guys!!

Vendors can't afford to be making such poor quality parts, in fact I don't think they meet safety regulations at all, as far as I am concern the sharp edges could cut my intercooler hoses and cause engine damage.
I will go back and delete a couple of words that way it wouldn't show up that I mentioned the vendor.

On the same note, I noticed that the vendor has some false advertizing, they claim to have a 2.25" piping when it is actually a 2.0". The stock intercooler piping is bigger.
This is the quote straight from the vendor's website:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
XXXXXXXXXX lower intercooler pipe replaces the restrictive stock piece entirely. The stock pipe has unnecessary bends
and necks down to less than 1.5". Other aftermarket versions neck down halfway through and, as such, do not fully realize
the gains in replacing the stock pipe. Our pipe maintains a 2.25" diameter throughout the entire piece other than a 1"(in length) section that is required to neck down to meet the stock turbo outlet.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Botton line is that if you are selling a product you should already realize that the quality of built is inferior to any automotion industry standards, moreover it is even potencially destructive. And here are more pics to prove myself
right again, remember, the vendor advertizes 2.25" piping all the way..:
NOTICE THAT THE SMALLER PIPING IS OVAL AND NOT ROUNDED!! CAN IT GET WORST THAN THIS?
One side is 1.75" and the other side is 1.5", it is just like an egg shape. The more I look at the part the more stuff I find wrong with it. Empty box with no hardware. Megan racing bagging.
Even the vendor did not want to take credit card at first, they want it only Paypal... ..
This is a true insult to me...
