looks like a replacement TIP but i would be a bit weary as although its fairly cheap not sure of the quality i would say if your looking at a  new TIP go for either a forge/samco/sfs one well known brands and better than taking a gamble on a ebay special  :wink:

is it worthwhile getting this and an ebay special longarm filter?

Or is there anything better (apart from a remap) thats under the 130 mark?
