Don't buy MMP Silicone Outlets!!

Just went through the 3rd one. At least this one lasted (8 months) more than my first two.

I know, should have learned from the first 2 but the 3rd one was only $100 lol

Im assuming that the exhaust manifold burnt a hole through them. Tends to happen alot which is why the aluminum outlets are so much better.

Manifold touched the outlets.

I have them wrapped with exhaust heat wrap but I guess overtime the outlets must have inched closer and finally burned a hole.

VRSF makes outlets that are pretty much the same with VTT. I believe that PSP made the first aluminium ones but they are like 80 bucks more than the VTT and VRSF

Unfortunately, when I dynoed my car I did not do a before and after when I had the MMPs installed. The VTTs were installed about a month ago and I have had no issues with them.
