CNT HFC = Broke after 8 months, mediocre soldering

That sucks. You aren't the first to have problems with their pipes. It doesn't seem like they are very good at taking care of their customers after the fact either.

God that is disgusting! CNT there on the 5hit list! Get Burk, Fast Intensions or Stillen. But only after you call them and talk 5hit to them.

wow that grip looks nice with your Z lifting up its skirt like that, never liked that particular rear bumper until now. Low hanging grip with the staggered mufflers is a good mix with it.

That seems a bit harsh, don't you think? Why would you call and talk 5hit to Berk, FI or Stillen for CNT's mishap?

I kid I kid...

I know he most likely did. I couldn't resist though.

As far as CNT goes you get what you pay for...or something like that.

Exactly, this isn't the first, and it isn't the last.
I think CNT actually solders their stuff, not welds it, lol

As frequently as it breaks, I'm starting to think they use a hot glue gun.
