yes it will take away horsepower gains. How much? I dont know, but certainly bottle knecking down to the tiny outlet from the silencer is going to affect performance.




I feel SSAutochrome owes me something for making this thread :P I've sold a ton of exhausts for them!

jk of course

why's that? Jesus, more and more I realize what a joke of a business person you are.

I bought a product that happens to not have been yours, and you seem to take personal offense to it? Why don't you try acting more like a legitimate entrepreneur and accept that some are price searchers, not price takers.

I'm most definitely a price searcher, and I did as much research as I felt necessary. I could post my crudentials to prove why I think I'm qualified in my own right to make this decision, but I'll spare you and others. Just assume at least for my sake that I'm not an idiot.

I honestly can say a few members have purchased the E-bay exhaust because of this thread, but why does that **** you off? Again I come back to your ethics as a business person - why do you feel entitled to our business?


Pull your head out of your ***. Not a single vendor on this planet, no matter what they are selling, ever is entitled to business. Its about finding your nich, your competitive advantage, and swimming with the rest. Quit bashing an exhaust just because its not yours, and quit giving bull **** reasons for why the E-bay exhaust sucks. So far this is the only valid point (albeit unimportant in my eyes):


1. Your exhaust is lighter (by roughly 15-20 pounds, if I am correct).
2.
3.
4. ?

Still waiting.


You have a good reputation on this forum and are certainly due respect for it. I think I'm fighting an uphill battle, being that it was never intended to be a battle in the first place. The goal was to help other members decide on an exhaust, I was attempting to contribute to the forum just like you. Suddenly when its not your product, the spread of information is not so welcome.

bought this kit and installed today. Its perfect fit for evo 9 . It is close(really close like quarter inch) but it doesnt raddle. It was really perfect fit. I was able to hang on it and it didnt move(near acd). Not bad for 250 dollars. Sounds nice

xs power exhaust

hi guys, im from Dublin, my xs turboback was fitted 2day, no hammering needed, lovely fit, what can i say about it, WOW, the sound, sweet note, the extra power, defo got a lot more power, best bit was the price, i payed $195+$140 shipping to Ireland(arrived in 3 days) so with the euro to dollar currency exchange rate i saved a fortune, its only cost me around 250euro, wow, what a saving i made, a turboback hks or similar would have cost me over 1500euro over here. im chuffed. with the money i saved i went out and bought a new set of rims. u cant beat ebay for a bargain.

Why? I think that as long as this thread remains a valid discussion of people who have purchased the XS Power exhaust there's no reason to lock it. However, if it again degrades into a "my exhaust vs. your exhaust" argument then that's another story.

Great, I just purchased this exhaust from SS auto chrome on Ebay. And I was worried about the fitment of the exhaust do to the ACD. Also the noise level on it too. I work for a cell phone company and I'm on the phone a lot in the car. So I need the sound level not to be so loud. Thanks for the pics and the thread you just reassured me of a great product. Exhaust is exhaust for any one out there. One might be lighter but give you about the same horsepower.
