Tuck Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 So the flexis have gone on my Y-pipe, these Ebay jobbies have been okay in the past. Anyone bought one of these? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 We get a lot of customers who have bought one and its failed within 6-12 months so they buy a better one. My advice if you can afford it is buy a better one, we have the Stillen one in stock and have been selling them for over 5 years without a single failure. We are a Stillen authorized UK dealer https://www.stillen.com/authorized-dealers , drop me a pm if I can help, we have cheaper options in stock too with a two year warranty Cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Bradders- Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I had one (second hand), failed after about 6000 miles of me buying it, tbf it cracked at the flexi after i hit a bump. bought another one now not fitting until after the build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floydbax Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Mine's the other EBay one with the single pipe from near the flexi's. It's been on over a year and despite looking a bit sorry for itself being a bit rusty I can't fault it for the price I paid for it. It could go tomorrow and I'd be OK with VFM 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay M1988 Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Bought an ebay special same as above and flexis went within a year. Buy cheap buy twice or in this case one a year. Went for the stillen y pipe from tarmac i believe and never looked back 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuck Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 I think that the stillen Y-pipe from Tarmac is the best bet, there service is second to none so I'll go with them. Cheers lads Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I bought that one (or similar one, but it was £120), had it on for 2 years now with no issues! Same as my eBay dacats - £90 and had them for over 3 years now without any issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exec Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) I've just purchased one of these Ebay specials, I have yet to fit it, I don't mind if I get a year or two or 10k miles for the price. Anything is better than the state of the Y-Pipe which was on the car when I bought it I'm experiencing some blowing at the moment... Not in a good way either!

Floydbax Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 ^ That doesn't look like a standard YPipe to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syy Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 I just got one of those ebay Y pipes, I paid £80 and it's actually made by Japspeed so matched my K2 I also got for £160. It's only been on a month but so far I'm very impressed with the fit and quality for the money. I don't do loads of miles so hopefully will last a while 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
