Default OBP Pedal Box OBP0334 V2 - anyone?

Hi - has anyone used the OBP0334 V2 pedal box? - I read numerous bad things about the v1 but not managed to find anything on the revised v2 - Considering one and wondering if things have improved.

I have many friends who have used OBP products on their competition cars and the general consensus is that their product are crap and the custom service is non existent.
You want a quality item from the like op Tilton or AP. Obviously cost wise they are about 3X the price

Yes - this is exactly my concern - I did use one of their catch cans and its 'OK' - but its just a can (obviously) - a pedal box is clearly more involved.

I would strongly avoid something like this from them. Buy a quality pedal box, with quality cylinders and reservoirs

I know plenty of people that have used OBP pedal boxes and they have had nothing but trouble with them. Avoid like the plague!!

Agree with Joe and Daz on this as I have the version 2 in my car ATM and this I had to modify and strengthen to do the job right if I was to start all over again I would have gone down the AP or Tilton route and would have saved a load of time and expense in the future I will be changing it anyway
