Default Ebay Silicone Tip any good?

Looking at getting a Silicone intake pipe fir my 2001 Bug WRX,
I have seen quite a lot on Ebay for around £60 to £70 and was just wondering if any one had bought one similar & if they are good or cheap tat?

cheap crap pal I bought one didn't fit worth a crap and they tend to be soft and suck in flat when giving it some stay away from them and just pay extra and get a well known make and if you are fitting it yourself good luck as they can be a bit of a ball ache

Just did a google search & found an old thread on here.

I think I will go for the Japspeed one.
I wont be fitting it my self, When CAMS fits my new Turbo I will get them to put it on at the same time.

There are some that are alright. I got 1 last year, think it was a 4-5 ply and it never sucked shut at 1.75 bar. Only changed due to future mods

These seem to be very good:
