Just to help reinforce what i was trying to say. I am not trying to bash the avo kit or any others. What i am trying to say, is that in my experience, nothing is ever plug and play and usually that simple, and that there will/can always be issues that will come up.

I bet there are many other kits out there from all manufacturers that have small exhaust leaks, or boost leaks, etc..how many people really even notice, or care? Hoe many actually go through and do leak tests, pressure test, etc..

Unless you are installing yourself and really anal about things, probably wont even notice. Or your tuner/installer is catching these things and fixing as they come across them, and maybe not even telling you about it. honestly. a loose hose clamp is probably not even something most shops would think to mention, they would just tighten it/replace it and move on.

I replaced most of my large worm drive clamps because i liked the look of the other clamps better, and i felt them to be a stronger piece and cheap upgrade. Needed? Probably not, but what i wanted, and so mentioned it in my build thread.

For the record i have never had to pay any shipping for any part that Paul has warrantied. Even this header, i have a pre-paid return shipping tag to send it back. While the inevitable issues have crept up, its something that can happen with any aftermarket part.
