I have bought other products of theirs that were total garbage. I had the fuel rails that stripped the fitting as soon as you started tightning them. They sent me a new kit and I sold it the day it showed up lol.

I also had their plenum and tb and they were ok.

Well maybe I'm the only person on the planet who can say this but I only had one problem with their intake manifold. I sent it back, they shipped me a new one, they also threw in a free upper plenum as reimbursement for what I paid to ship it to them and I never had a problem since...I guess it's just a matter of opinion and my opinion is that PP is a pretty decent company...

PP sucks *****. I had the same thing happen to me when I bought their fuel rails but I just threw them away and ordered aeromotive ones. Then I had to drill on the TB just to be able to get the throttle cable into it.

I just took a screwdriver and pried a part where there was a grove cut into it.
