Hi all

I finally received a set of extractors I bought from EBAY
I decided to pressure (20 PSI) test them before fitting, and they seem to be leaking from every possible place. Anyone with more experience than I with exhausts (all of you), could you have a look at this video and let me know If I'm expecting too much, or should I send them back?

VIDEO

Thanks

Cripes!! Can’t say I’ve ever thought to pressure test an exhaust but surely that wouldn’t be acceptable!? Looks like the work experience kid did the welding (or me, my welding is pretty crap too [emoji23])

Looks like the welds have not penetrated the metal. Send them back

Thanks guys, got a half arsed response from seller that he might send a new set after xmas break. I'm not impressed with the seller so far, but will give them the benefit of doubt before I really bag them on here.
