Pretty sure kev wanted to charge me $140, so would need to confirm his current pricing.And yeah they pop/split (especially after tuned). User named Bizkets on here has a good example he's posted somewhere lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenDoCo I'm getten too old for this s**t Bronze Donating Members 4,509 Member For: 11y 10m 16d Gender: Male Location: A big bridge over a river in South Australia Posted 09/01/15 01:44 PM Share Posted 09/01/15 01:44 PM My TB joiner split the day I picked up the car after being tuned.....and it was a Friday afternoon but Pitlane had a Process West Alloy pipe and joiner sent over the weekend and was fitted first thing Monday morning. Luckily PL had a spare (second hand) joiner that I could use over the weekend. As has been said....the joiner does have a tendency to split or the plastic original pipe will suck itself in at the joiner after a tune. Some people can be lucky and not have a problem though.
