Just purchased this on e-bay...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWN%3AIT

Has anyone on here ever bought one of these off of ebay? If so, are they any good? Also, can you tell a difference in acceleration with these hard pipes or hear the turbo spool any better?

I didn't really notice any performance difference with a hard intake pipe, but the spooling and blow-off noises were definitely more loud.

like everyone has said before, a pipe is a pipe. as long as you have your K&N open air filter on there it will be good.

Re: Just purchased this on e-bay...

got the pipe today and put it on...was a little more difficult to put on than i thought because it's not exactly perfectly made....it was a bitch to get the blue rubber pieces on, other than that, it works great....turbo spool is a tad louder and i noticed a little more throttle response (probably cause when i took mine off and completely examined it, i found a little cut in it, nothing major though)...but i'd say it's worth the money to get one.
