I gotta say though......... Right now they have a hell of a deal on stainless F- body and C5 long tubes (not that the FI section cares).

^no it appears that they just entered ebay and new customers will get 50% off if they send in before and after pics of the headers installed.

I heard the headers for the dsm's were made from different metals, meaning the flanges and the tubes, so they were expanding at different rates with the heat and the welds were just separating....I dunno how true that is, but I know they were having lots of issues with their headers.

I come from a small family automotive business background and I can tell you right now that responses to complaints/bad feedback like that are absolutely unacceptable. If one of our vendors had an attitude like this we would definitely stop doing business with them. There is just no excuse for replies like that... they should be taken as an indicator of how they do business, and the level of quality in the products they sell. Clearly these guys don't give a d@mn.

If I ran a company and I treated customers like this I wouldn't expect to be around very long. Especially when you sell garbage. These people suck hard...

Oh, I forgot to add. The "T70" turbos being sold on eBay under generic names are NOT T4 frame 70mm turbos. They are a "Super 70 trim" T3 model.... VERY small.
