so last year i jumped the gun when everything was first starting to come out for the fk8 and i happen to go with the k tuned down pipe witch is 699.00 plus shipping so its been on my car for ruffly a year so i only drive it hear and there there's less then 8000k on the car and the down pipe is cracking welds and holes are forming the thing is junk the quality is vary poor today i tried getting a hold of k tuned to see if they could help me out or fix it or any thing and they were just real assholes about it told me its over year old can't help me so i am out 699.00 for some junk down pipe witch i am glad i took it apart now i ordered the prl down pipe and mid pipe and i just got it delivered wow what a difference in quality and craftsmanship tig welds not mig welds so i am letting people know before they order a k tuned that there not getting a good quality part and hope now one else looses out like i did
That sucks...I can tell you were angry...no periods...and this :D "...ruffly a year so i only drive it hear and there there's less then 8000k on the car and the down pipe is cracking welds and holes are forming the thing is junk the quality is vary"

I guess try prl or rv6...both seem good and haven't hear of any major issues

If I can make a suggestion, since your ceramic coating it you probably shouldnā€™t wrap it also. Iā€™ve seen wrapping itself cause corrosion.

This. Depending on weather and road conditions, you are trapping moisture under any wrap. Part of the reason I'm not wrapping anything on my car in WI...same place as OP. (I also am driving it in the winter)

Glad you got the PRL one!

Sucks you had that experience. From their end, I kind of understand, being a year out of buying their product, but maybe they can say "Hey sorry, that happened to you, send it back and let us repair this or we can get you a discount on another one". I don't know how your conversation went but I hate bad customer service.

I hope the PRL one lasts longer since I'm looking to get the PRL DP as well. From what I can tell, PRL has great customer service, great products, and great QA.

Probably both. Whether driving in rain, snow, winter, summer...you live in WI. There will be moisture under any wrap. An inferior product will compound this.
