I was wondering if their parts were ok as well. I think I'm going to order their test pipe.

I went ahead and tried the depo wideband and boost gauge. The boost gauge seems to work fine looks nice and reads correct so far. The wideband on the other hand worked for about 2 minutes of idle time. I started my car up the next morning and its not reading just shows 20.00 and the flashing is kinda distracting.

I've had the 4 inch intercooler for a little over a year now. Used it with my green which put out 380 to the wheels and now using it with my red setup and I'm at 477 to the wheels. I have no complaints at all

Many of us know DEPO makes functional ic and ic pipes, but I wonder if we are sacrificing longevity. Anyone running DEPO ic/ic pipes for multiple years?

I recently bought a Depo LICP. Quality was really good except for one thing. The hole that was cut for the BOV pipe wasn't as large in diameter as the pipe itself. So when you looked into the metal section of the pipe, you could see that any air going into or coming out of that hole would drag on that rim that was in the way. Honestly, I doubt it would make much of a difference as there isn't that much air going through there anyway. The hole was about 3/16 inch, roughly, too small.
So what I did was use my Dremmel to open up the hole to match the diameter of the pipe. It was really easy, but I don't think it's something I should have had to do.
The welds were actually really professional. But the paint was super thin and chipped off really easily. Every little bump into something while I was working on it chipped off a new bit.
However, taking into account the price, the overall quality and the ease at which I was able to bring the piece up to my standards. As well as the fact that the pipe is larger in diameter than most other LICPs for the Evo X, it was a worth while purchase. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from Depo again and I can recommend their intercooler piping. I also got a 5% discount voucher for my next order.
I'm curious about Depo's downpipe. I'm not sure if I want to tackle a downpipe install on the stock turbo, but I am interested to hear from anyone who has a Depo downpipe and what they think of it.
