I haven't contacted them yet, but the Hepu seems fine otherwise. Looks just like the one that I pulled out! Kinda rough scraping off all the old gasket, tho. I just reused one of the old O-rings that looked ok. If you are gonna be doing the job yourself, make sure to get one of those cable hose clamp pliers! Some of the pipes (esp. the water pump to turbo pipe) were pretty hard to get at, too. Think 13mm deep 1/4" drive socket. Looking back, I probably could have done the job over a long weekend, but I was going pretty slow. It's definitely the biggest DIY job I've done so far. (I also replaced the serp. belt and pulleys while I was there, but that was really simple since I was taking the belt off anyway.) Oh, and lousy allergies slowed me down too. :-P
Good luck!
