I have it. IMO, it is a waste of money. It fits OK, but the ring welded to the end (turbo side, to retain the coupler) is too close to the BPV port. This is a problem because the ring doesn't go the complete circumference of the pipe. It was very hard for me to get it to seal correctly.

I have a guy making me one for $50, and then I'll be selling mine.

I asked the same question when I bought mine, most people seemed to like the pipe; I don't agree.

I have one. It was better than my stock crumbbling mess, but way overpriced for what it is. If it had come with tbolt clamps instead of worm clamps and was a single bent pipe instead of a weld job I would be happier with it. 5 outa 10

^^^Nice and looks like it should be there from factory.:biglaugh:

Bet yours is better priced as well...

 

[suprajjang]

i have one as well. overall im not really happy with any of the cooleeze parts i have. The accordian hose has fitment problems. For how much they charge it should fit better but it doesnt. I also have the cooleeze IC pipe kit and the fitment on that sucks as well. The upper kit is fine but the lower IC pipes fit like ass

The (ONE) I've seen in person was very "cheap" looking.

Sorry, just my opinion.

if cooleeze started rolling beads in their pipes instead of tack welding those ring on they would be MUCH easier to manage...

not to mention spacing everything right for t-bolt clamps and using t-bolts instead of worm gears...

Clamps aside... I like mine and havebt had any issues.

I have one, its ok.... but not worth the triple digits I spent to get it. :3d_frown:

Pro's
Looks nice
Should last forever

Con's
Cooleeze has very slow shipping (it took two months to get mine)
The turbo side coupler is 3" (bigger than our turbo's inlet)
Gay ass (worm clamps) :biglaugh:
And did I mention the PRICE!!! :aigo:

I recently purchased one. its been well over a week and some and shouldn't take that long for it too arive. cooleze is in B.C. canada and I live in saskatchewan canada I could literaly drive there in a day or 2 days max.

But anyways im excited to replace it with my stock rubber one. Also the stock rubber one has like rivets in it where the coolezee one is smoothed out all the way. It says in the add that ppl have noticed increase in psi and power. I dunno if this is true but I could c minum gains from it though(like 1-3 hp)

 

[Poodles]

maybe gains from replacing an old cracked accordian hose...

stock works great, will give and move when you need it to, and is FAR cheaper...

only reason I have cooleeze IC pipes is becaue I bought em second hand for a steal...
