Real TiAL vs. Knockoff

Please note: TiAL will NOT give tech support for knockoff products, pictured are two examples. Knockoffs exist for the F35/38, F40/41, V44 and F46 as well as our 50mm BOV. These products are terrible fakes sold mostly on ebay and are imported from china. Just because it says TiAL on the wastegate, does NOT mean it is real (see 44mm knockoff images). if you have any doubts about a purchase, e-mail tech@tialsport.com with a link or images and we will assist you. Check back for a technical analysis of the fake wastegate soon.

Update: New KNOCKOFF images from Taiwan. These look very real, but are knockoffs. They are NOT made in the USA and they are NOT TiAL products.

Update: A known eBay seller of the knockoff wastegates, BOV's and other turbo components has set up shop in the UK, (using eBay UK mainly) they are selling the knockoff 44mm wastegate pictured below and calling it a 'Genuine TiAL' Be advised, they are far from genuine and 100% knockoff! avoid this seller.

Update: More images have been added from the online auction world. We encourage you to demand the serial number from the seller before placing a bid/purchasing an item!
