most just need to be adjusted and re bead rolled. I cut the main hahn pipe and then got it re-bead rolled and it works fine.

Also ZZPs doesn't

My dejon doesn't rub at all and I have an HKS SSQV mounted on the top section of it. If your piping rubs, you didn't install it right.

Me personally I'd never order from CIA again. Both times I ordered chargepiping it took over 2 months for me to get it. Everytime I'd call he'd say "oh it'll be shipped this week"

the last order I got all the couplers were paper thin and the tbolts were too big. Called him about that all he said was it's not that expensive to buy smaller clamps.

So I don't recommend them at all go somewhere else

Rubbing is from 1 thing.

Installer error.

I have OTTP pipes. No rubbing anywhere.

I just looked there is an option for couplers and tbolt clamps

ZZP, OTTP, Injen make good parts too

OTTP is 304 stainless powdercoated gloss black with awesome couplers and t-bolts.

~$400.

Yeah, considering it comes with T-bolts, VERY good couplers and hot and cold side for that amount....

Find something else that beats it.

I have pics up in a thread...stand by...

I would of went with the stainless but I wanted one that went over the engine for a direct route and well at half the price the injen was a good deal. But I concur stainless is the best. who's is mild steel?
