i am in college, and therefore i am continually low on cash. can anyone tell me about this exhaust from experience?

will i be getting what i paid for or do ebay parts actually last?
(i am not looking for ebay parts bashing, just honest opinions)

or you could suggest another exhaust.

thanks guys.

 

If I'm not mistaken, that will not bolt up to our cats. Different exhaust systems.

 

Yeah I was worried about that when I saw it said es oz and ralliart...
I guess I can email and ask specifically.
But if it does fit, would you buy it?

 

Bump?

 

here's a pretty in-depth review...not for the RA but for the optionracing catback...so i at least it provides some info and opinion....

If you like "loud" exhaust, just save your monies and get the Magnaflow from RRM. It's loud as hell. So loud, that I took off after a couple of weeks because I do a lot of highway driving, and it was giving me a damn headache.

IMO, just stay stock.

 

Antonovich: thanks, that's just what I was looking for.

Parrish: I knew you would say that.

I dunno, the tip is pretty effing huge on the option racing exhaust. And I'm not looking for loud, I'm looking for a high bang/buck ratio. And if it actually adds 10-15 hp, then that's pretty hard to argue with, seeing as the rsx owner says they're all good welds, etc.
Is there any similar bang/buck bolt on for a similar price?

 

If you want bang for buck build your own. Don't do any crap like buy an exhaust with a 5 inch tip. Leave that **** for supras and ricers.

 

I agree to build your own. Take it to a local shop and get it bent the way you want it, get the size of piping you want, choose your own muffler. To be honest, you won't gain much without any supporting mods to go with an exhaust.

10-15hp is unlikely,you're more likely to gain 10-15 decibels lol.

I know you're tight on funds, but an I/H/E/UD pulley if you stay n/a is probably the most efficient and bang for dollar.

 

this is true i have all but the headers and my car still pulls good.

 

i found it amusing that the shipping cost was nearly equal to the part cost lol

 

Buxnbass: yeah, the shipping cost was bs.
Ralliartize it: I usually agree, but I saw a wrx with a big 5" tip and it looked pretty sexy. (I'm on my itouch and when I typed wrx it autocorrected for sex.)
Kl3v: what kindof gains will I get from a rrm udp?

 

[quote=nashvilleRA;8835140] what kindof gains will I get from a rrm udp?
i got 7whp and 9trq it was a good money investment

 

That's a WRX...not a 4cylinder N/A

 

true, true. i just meant the way it looked, and for me, the way an exhaust looks has nothing to do with whats under the hood.
