Have Achtuning, it's very solid. Engine cover won't fit over it though.

Default That sucks...mine is going great...

I honestly can't see how it would break. It's really that thick.

Default the ring that sits in the groove on the TB tore out part way

and i think the other damage was caused from the tbb popping off under lots of boost, the clamps or me trying to reinstall it at a gas station.

this just happened over the weekend, unless i did something really stupid i'd imagine achtuning will replace it.

Default You *may* have over tightened it... it's pretty easy to do with silicone IMHO

especially it's as thick as this one is. It doesn't need to be as tight as people think.
