Default SS Autochrome? Prolly junk.

Not knowing what the material is, and the overall cheapness of the unit, my guess is the welds could crack inside of 10,000 miles.

Default Their reputation isn't that great and its a big risk to take if they do crack. Changing is a lot of.

work.

If you are willing to spend the time it's worth a shot.

Default Well, Its also the suppliers responsibilty to price the product competitvley enough to discourage

this type of behavior. Yea I agree 90% of the tuners here are charging too much for their products. Hence, this is what happens, you open the opportunity for counterfeiters.
