Performance parts will fail. Knock off performance parts will/should fail at a higher rate. This isn't a fake pedal or sticker debate, it's a "you're a dummy" thread.
OP, your friend?
He's a dummy.

How could OP (or anyone) think this would go any other way?
I feel like starting a thread named "stop posting shit people should already know", but, alas, 90% of R3V would collapse in on itself. :up:

I bought knockoff M pedals for my E30 for $50 new, is my engine going to blow up now? Should i get rid of them and pay $500 for real ac shnitzer pedals instead?

well you're talking about two different products...the ACS pedals don't have the M emblem on them....but if you had ebay ACS, then yes you should have gotten rid of them to get the real things.

I knew it! I will destroy my fake $50 dollar aluminum pedals instantly and spend the $500 on other aluminum pedals which are "authentic" made in fear that car car will break down! It all makes perfect sense now!

I bought xenon headlight bulbs off ebay for like 5 bucks. Do you think my car is in danger?!!

Ohh damn it makes sense now that it's called a wasteGATE and it got stuck. Learned something new. Also correct me if I am wrong but isn't 30lbs of boost like excessive? It sounds like a lot to me.

If you have a turbo build running at maybe 10psi, which most stock engines can likely handle, and suddenly your waste gate spikes the boost to 30psi, you're blowing 3x the pressure of air into your engine, which is probably going to blow something up.
