    Just FYI, the test pipe from EuroCode is $199 and there is no GB needed.

    Really? They are both made by the exact same company for the two distributors. I have gone to the factory where they are made and talk to the owner. Your eyes must be seeing something that even the manufacturer doesn't know about.

    They are the exact same thing. EuroCode and Tantrumwerks get them from the exact same place.

    HI.

    maybe i should've said "slight" difference. may not mean much to you, but for some people, attention to detail counts. they(labree) probably provided the first pic for a reason. not exactly the same, but yes, still function the same.

    here's a pic of the ecode(left) and labree(right) pipes:

    I don't know where you got the pic of the Ecode one, but my test pipe did not look like that when I got it. It was clean like the second pic.

    Even the one from the website doesn't look as bad as your first pic. The first pick looks like it is used and torn up. The one from the website is more of what mine looked like. By the way, the little clean up work that looks like the other one has mine had as well. Maybe they just started doing that, but like I said they are both made by the same company and shipped to both distributors so why wait for 10 people to save only $10 on the same item?

    Guess who's back back back, back again... Villians back back back, tell a friend. LOL.


    BTW, my testpipe looked like what was in the first picture and I never got any sort of gasket or bolts... I had to use stock ones, so the pic from ecode is a bit decieving...

    yes, that is correct. frees up the exhaust flow.

    i'd also like to know the diameter of the piece...
    can it be fitted to the stock exhaust?

    what's the diameter of the ecode one?
