There is no image.

If the question is why buy American? I would say to maybe support this economy.

 

[SNKSKNR]

I can't get the pictures on. I have a real terry houston DP and A jap houston DP. The puck is mounted so far off that it will not seal and caused boost creep.
Someone help me out to get the pictures on here.

 

[notacarlo]

Why Would You Buy Anything Jap Or Chinese?

I have a real terry houston DP and A jap houston DP.

Didn't know the "japs" built a DP for our cars.

If they did, it probably would fit as good or better than it's American counterparts.

I never got the e-mail with the pics.

dude its a joke to put down american stuff. if you dont like it get the **** out of here. America makes the best **** period.

 

[notacarlo]

I don't think that's what he is saying. I think he is going to show you the puck misalignment of the over-seas pipe compared to the TH pipe he has.


No need to throw anyone under the bus just yet.

Your an idiot for not seeing the sarcasm, but thats besides the point. America makes the best sh!t? Such as what, downpipes for a Buick? Yeah I can agree with that, seeing that the Chinese versions usually don't fit right out the box.

But I thought we're talking about these special japanese downpipes the OP mentioned?

 

[seeyabye]

I had to learn my lesson the hard way. After buying that cheap chinese crap that wouldn't even bolt up to the heads and a downpipe that wouldnt make it between the engine and the frame, let alone bolt to the turbo; I decided to buy a quality piece that fit the first time and would last.

 

[ulose2av6]

yes america does make the best ****. who can compare. Who makes a better plane than boeing etc etc. who makes better military stuff than USA. hmmm the answers is NO ONE. ie. stealth,f14,f15,f16. m1a1 abrams the list goes on bud. Who makes a better farm equipment then JOHN DEERE or heavy machinery than CATERPILLAR. The answer yet again sarcasm is NO ONE.

Well I bought a car with a jap down pipe and it fit like $hit and the puck was welded a 1/2 inch off. You shine a light from the bottom of the exhaust on the turbo with the dp on and you can see major light through it. What a hunk of junk!

I'm pretty sure there aren't any "Jap" downpipes made for our cars.

Chinese, sure, but "Jap"... I doubt it.

That's kind of like saying "German" i.e. BMW, Mercedes, etc. when you meant "Russian" i.e Lada.

 

[pdooley]

damn, you guys are harsh with the Jap reference.

and no, i doubt Japan would even bother with a Buick downpipe, they are too busy crushing our auto industry with their superior products.
