    Just bought a set o these for my Jetex exhaust, well recommended! This is the seller I got mine from clickity, genuine Mikalor too not cheap knock offs.

    Heres how they look fitted, one on the right is 16v size, maybe could do with being a bit smaller but still plenty of meat left to go a bit tighter if need be:

    Nice recommendation.

    What size are the bolt threads would you say? M8 or 10?

    head on em is 10mm, I can confirm the thread a bit later. I installed these with exhaust fitted also, once you undo the bolt they pop open enough to slip round the zausty :)

    So you can get plenty of torque onto them?

    Awesome, get them over a system without dismantling :thumbup:

    yeah can do, they do a good job of clamping without masses of torque though as they're nice n wide. I used a mini ratchet to do em up 'tight' as thats all i have right now and i couldnt wiggle the joints or anything.

    They look to be the same as whats supplied in my eibach arb kit too so handy for peeps that get incomplete kits :thumbup:
