i dont understand why anyone would bother having a whinge about a 20 dollr item.
you say you have had a heap of trouble with chinese radiators intercoolers and manifolds..... so why keep buying chinese crap if its so bad.???

a fool and his money are easily parted hey demo.???

no personal attacks by me, have made that clear to D as well.

Keep it product related not race related. Who cares what race some one is or their background, just dont let this slip into some rascist undertoned rubbish, otherwise franco bros can shut it down

LOL... yup I have to agree here! My Aussie made BMW headers did not fit my car properly, as they had obviously copied a set from a German LHD car! This was a reputable aussie brand too - did they ever try fitting them to a RHD car... I think not.

I work as an import / export QA inspector, and I often come in as an independent umpire representing the overseas buyer or seller (ie. the Chinese, Bangladeshis, Pakistanis, Arabs whoever). Yes, I even inspected the Pontiac GTOs for GM before they left the dock from Holden (ie. they don't even trust a branch of THEIR OWN COMPANY)... all I can say is that if you think Aussie exporters have perfect records, you are living in dream land Demo.

I have also seen plenty of importers trying to rip off Chinese exporters even when they are paying virtually nothing for a product and selling at giant markups when the incoming product has been of excellent quality, and well within specifications. It goes both ways.

As everyone has already pointed out, with any cheap stuff it really is BUYER BEWARE. But you can get some great stuff if you look around and don't have unrealistic expectations.

Unfamilia right on nothing personal however...
I lived three years in japan and along with others in my team have worked in all areas of industrial design and production efficiency which included setting up factories in Ning Bo and Shanghai for japanese companies so I know about the subject on a larger scale than intercoolers and jap rice tuning shops.

You cant compare a few lame experiences over intercoolers. When it comes to mass production the japs are there now to improve the quality of the output..

To say that early mass produced Chinese products where better than Japanese is a grossly incorrect statement.

edit; just read your pm thanks I wasnt offended just have worked with many people in this field and personally I would for intercoolers say right on who cares where they are from as long as they can hold the pressure and keep all the hot air cool

However if you where to compare Japanese girls with Chinese
girls I would prefer the latter for sure. Most Japanese girls say yes to anything with a stick.
