The design of the end tanks is poor and they use a cheap core. The hard pipe hits the airbox, so only compatible with aftermarket induction kit. The end of the hard pipes doesn't have a beaded lip, so they are prone to blowing off.

 

They may 'look' like a equivalent Japanese branded FMIC, but there will be a difference in terms of quality and performance. You get what you pay for IMO.

The ones I've seen do have beaded ends on the pipes.

 

The end tank design is not great - agreed but neither is it that good on the Blitz LM V spec - see attached.

 

The core is bar and plate - very strong and resilient to road debris (compared to a tube and fin) but internally the entry and exit to passages through the core is not streamlined at all.

 

It will be better than a tired sidemount especially if ducted and sealed properly but as Nic said - say bye bye to your stock airbox.

im not sure wat kind of state mines is in, but I just like the look of a front mount. Was just wondering if a cheap one would effect performance as much as say a HKS or Greddy one?

 

Buy the xs or the AB one i had from flat4online, great value for money, for standardish-bpu sups they will work perfect, not sure how good on a single turbo but they say theyre good for 600bhp.

the fit is good and they look ace, see pic attached of my white one and my friends black supra also with the autobahn 88 fmic
