Tx Autosport stuff seems to be a hit or a miss.
A lot of people complain that the radiators are shit.
I have an enlarged top hat and power pipe on my car and it's excellent, really good quality.
Their intercooler kits get good rep too.
So I'd say give it a go at a tenner

I have one on the escort and it works spot on. It doesn't leak and I did notice metal filings on it when I changed the oil. Can't moan for a tenner.

Worth the money imo.

They are indeed! I managed to get hold of the guy sending them over from China to see if he could do a special price for a group buy (and maybe a few to sell on at a later date  ). The prices he quoted, i may aswell have just purchased direct from TX in the saem bulk amounts!

probably will be made for loads of other purposes and available for quite cheap somewhere. Loads for bike engines just wrong thread. Im not that bothered for the sake of 2 quid though tbh. Hopefully arrive by friday ready for oil change friday night. Just need a smart drip tray now.
