The point I'm trying to make here is that, so what if they're made in China? Labour rates are considerably cheaper in China, and industry is big there, so there's no reason why you can't get good quality from China.That comes down to Quality Assurance, and nothing to do with the location.

Our exhaust systems are currently made in the UK, but our downpipes and revision3+ tubular manifolds are manufactured in China- I've made no secret of it! I don't know why people think that Chinese stuff is likely to be worse, because it all comes down to the QC specified by the customer.
The Chinese even have a more advanced Space program than ours!
