Default WORD OF ADVICE!

There is one company that we all know and use that are selling 3”Stainless Steel Down pipes that are not all Stainless. The flex joint ( Bellows) are Stainless but the end caps are an Aluminized steel that will rust away! Also back in 03 the v-band flanges were also steel and are rusting away. I have talked to the company and said no one make the flex bellow made out of all Stainless. It took me 5 minutes on the computer to find out that’s Bull sh$t! All they could do ( or would do ) is to say ship them back and we will fix them for $250 bucks and we’ll put the same **** back on plus shipping. FU@$ that!! I bought Full Stainless Steel Down pipes, not some sh*t that will rust away. There was no small print that said by the way some of these parts are not Stainless and will rust to pieces! I would not have bought them knowing this! This is my problem to deal with not yours, I just want to inform you guys to ask and don't assume that everything is what they advertise. Randy

[Not trying to get the company to step up, they had there chance! It just suck’s because the company is a benefit to the Audi scene in general. I just will no longer believe they will stand behind there product. Just do the research, before you buy anything. Randy

What company are you referring to?

It would be helpful for others to know who not to order from...

AutoSpeed performance. It's to bad because they have done some good things in the past to help move the platform along. Randy
