Hi guys,

I recently ordered a set of Steeda UDPs for my '07 GT/CS. Thing is, when the package arrived, it contained the Granatelli UDPs!

Now, as I live in the UK, shipping back to the seller is a pain (for us both), so do I just stick with the Granatellis and ask for discount (they're cheaper than the Steeda's by some margin) - or send them back and insist on the Steeda's?

Can't seem to find a definitive 'which is better' anywhere and I insist on the best for my ride

I did read (albeit from Granatelli) that their version of the UDPs are closer to the OEM weight, so are less likely to cause wear issues with timing chain etc. (though I can't see how that would happen anyway)?

Anyone able to proffer advice? I know we all tend to be brand loyal - but I need to consider some logistical practicalities too.

Also, before anyone says 'contact the seller and tell them to replace and give them what for etc.' - they've been excellent about it and are willing to do whatever I want re. replacement with the Steedas or credit for the difference.

Thanks

that is the first I heard of the "wear issue" bit. I have Steeda on mine, dont know much about the Grans and their quality. They burst on the scene about a year ago with 05 stuff, by then I was well done with other products.

I can't say Gran stuff is good or bad but Steeda is the only manufacturer to work directly with Ford for product development from the get go. Steed races with their equipment. I don't think Gran has a racing team, do they?

I would ask for what you ordered. Just my $0.02

Have them send you the Steeda's and a prepaid return label for the Granatelli's.

I would go with the Steeda's. I have some GMS stuff on my car, but I wouldn't use their pullies. Too many things can go wrong if they're not made well, which a lot of their stuff isn't.

Steeda's a very trustworthy name, and have been making quality parts for over 20 yrs now, you get what you pay for, you pay a little more you get a little better product, which will be worth it in the end

Thanks guys, you've confirmed what I already thought - the GMS are going back to be replaced with the Steeda's.

can you put them back in the box they came in and put return to sender on the box for return shipping?

Stig

Well, they came with a larger consignment (my American Racing L/T headers) - so they'd rattle around a bit

I know its a pain but I would get the Steeda stuff.
