i think the quality will be good on this but quite pricey for a no name product. i bet they just bought a miltek one then copied it

this is the BS response I got from them when asked for photos to check for some details. Come on people, put some efford in it "hi, thanks for your enquiry, unfortunately we do not have the facility to take extra pictures of the items, these are listing by our listing department who are sent the pictures from external source kind regards""

these are made by toyosports. they usually specialise in jap cars but do the odd bit for popular european cars. i won one of these for less than £100 and gives exactly the same increase as a milltek. prob the reason you got the sh***y answer from the ebay guys is cos mine was won on ebay but then sent from the suppliers. hope this helps. oh yeah, dont expect the shine to last more than half hour after starting the car.
Well I don't care about the shine, but what about the durability? So it is definitely a different material that Miltek original manifold? I checked the www.toyosports.co.uk that you mentioned and they don't have this for our ST . Is yours still on the car, what's the condition?
thanks mate

You have to be careful though, you can get replica's made exactly the same performance gains the same...But you dont have a garrentee that these will be reliable.
when you say reliable, what do you mean? That it could fall apart during driving cos the material and welds are cr*p ?

these are a different design to the milltek. is more based on the factory manifold but obviously made from stainless and with big bore flexi. haven't had a single problem with it. welds are good quality and overall a very good finish. well worth the money in my opinion. will post up a couple pics shorty. as for colour just goes a nice goldy purple colour. looks nice. just dont know why they mirror polish them when it wont last. lol
