That's a lot of money paid for a poor quality item although I would expect a good quality twinscroll pipe like a milltek as I have on mine to cost more hope you get a replacement sorted, where did you buy it and is it new?

Well what about this one then. Wouldn't it be better for the flow if it also was welded on the inside instead of that gap between the round pipe and the outer shape? I can tell you that my previous single scroll Invidia downpipe is a work of art compared to this. This wasn't the only flaw but it should work.

It's difficult to see weld quality on the Internet imo, but on the firSt one, were you actually worried about the weld quality or the flange roughness? The flange could look neater but I wonder think it would have caused any issues with flow etc as such.
Turbovin, how far does the inside pipe poke out, so to speak? Would imo have benefitted from a better fit up, but doubt it's going to make a massive difference from a power point of view.

Will have to measure properly when I'm back in the garage but 8-10 mm past the weld probably. It doesn't poke out fully that much though. But it's on the left it needs smoothing out the most really. I'm going to give it to a skilled friend and see what he can do.
