creation motosport TIP quality issues!!!
« on: 29 March 2013, 13:16 »
Very unhappy with my aum tip from creation motorsport. In general very bad fit the advantage of bigger pipe was annoying as you have to push it tgrough a small gap causing it to crush slightly.but now today found due to its odd layout it pushs on a metal pipe which in less than few months has cut a hole through it!!! Now im sure most people will say no issue so manybe it a dodgy mould or summit but lets hope there custom service is good as im not happy at all wish id got the forge one now

I have heard you have to trim a cm or so on the turbo end

So was it the hose clamp that caused the hole? Abit confused
