In my opinion it gives you all the reason to let him in from a business stand point. From a consumer stand point if I can buy headers for $1000 and get $1200 for my cat cores, seems like a no brainer. Its a win/win/win.

No, but sounds like you will "dispose" of OE primary cats for free as a service letting the customer who paid for headers + install think you're doing them a solid.

1. We don't do installs
2. We have never "disposed" of any cats.

So VRP never sent Slow_c63 used cats shortly after banning him from the FB group?

Slow_c63 do you have proof you can post? Maybe a picture with the "from" label?

I’m sure both of us have much bigger fish to fry elsewhere. So I’m not going to give this too much attention. I reached out to you guys in the early stages, explaining what I do. I offered a possibility to maybe work together. Which I’m sure VRP is doing just fine without. But I never received a reply.

I’d like to move forward by saying that I could have at least used better choice of words. There was no reason for this to boil over. We all have the same goal in mind.

Sorry if I mislead anyone with that post. I get a lot of VRP labeled boxes from his customers weekly. VRP has never shipped me anything nor have we done any business together. Again, these are boxes that are being reused by his customers.

Better off buying from SHARDUL. VRP sells the same Chinese crap for more. If you want a legit Longtubes get ARH. They have equal runners that mate into a spiked merge collector. MBH is decent but 2 inch primaries isn’t necessary on N/A application.

We acctually sell for less... Given the price here is less than shardul, However this cheaper version is sold out, we only have the VRP line left which retail for $1950 but are currently on sale for the $1100 price match with the entry level headers. https://www.vrpspeed.com/product/m15...gtube-headers/

as a bonus when you buy from us we put money back into the platform for projects like this Gen 4/ Gen 5 compatible Whipple kit for M156

whipple is old news. Put money towards a tvs 2650 kit and you’ll have people line up. The whipple is good for 1 run and then power falls off fast from the heat.

The Gen 5 hasnt been used on any Mercedes kits. It is more efficient than the TVS2650. The Gen 5 is completely redesigned head unit, They are not interchangeable. TVS does not offer the correct snout options to utilize top mount intercoolers.

Stay clear of VRP

A word of warning,
if you have any issues with products you buy from these guys, they wont be interested.
Ive wasted 6.5k AUD on Turbo, tune and Handheld tuner, Turbo arrived with damaged actuator, hand held tuner not sent, Turbo not producing the power/boost it should, they will not deal with any issues, they are crooks, I've tried tech support, they told me to use a compressor to check the actuator but it's vaccume actuated so pressure won't work, my tuner who I went to because they never sent the handheld I purchased said the Turbo is not making boost, he messaged them with some of the issues we were having and the turbos current boost issues and technical detail but they read the message and never replied, the worst company I have ever dealt with.
buy at your perril from these crooks, all they had to do was to help us identify what the issue could be, but once they got your money that's it.
i will be hitting every social media site i can find to warn people and I won't stop until they start offering some support in dealing with this issue.
if they ever actually give me some support i will stop these posts but until then I will keep going.

Thanks nick
