I purchase the burschur exhaust for one strict reason. MAX air flow and sound, I already know it's not going to look pretty like those 1500 JDM exhaust. But I know for the fact that the burschur exhaust will perform up to par with those 1500 exhaust. Looks are overrated, like 4G63DSM, people buy exhaust is because of power. Why do I want to spend 1000 dollar on an cat-back exhaust that I know wouldn't make more power then burschur but looks good? weak!
Burschur all the way!

How about the way it looks on the car. Once I switched to a JDM bumper the Helix catback stuck out way to far so I changed to a Greddy Ti. So I guess you could say one of the reasons for choosing the Greddy was "looks".
Look at this hokey imported stainless steel exhaust I found on our shelf. 
It is FAAAAR from greatest picture but you can make it out.

Wow, it's interesting reading more and more.
Let me see here. My father retired after 30 years of working in a steel mill and I worked in a steel mill (both in Ohio BTW, we didn't commute to China) for 9 years. The steel mill we worked in was a tubing mill. The steel was poured and formed into sheets in CLEVELAND, Ohio and then the flat rolled steel was unloaded by cranes at our mill was it was sent to the slitter. The slitter is the machine that slits these wide rolls into narrower bands, based on the width of the steel you need to make. This slit steel was then sent to the welding department where it is formed into a round tube and seam welded and punch cut off on the ends. This tubing was then picked up by another crane, put into bucks and brought to the finishing department where it was again picked up by a crane and run through machines called straighteners to get it perfectly straight. Then it was cut to length, formed or shipped out the end customer.
No steel made in the USA. My father-in-law still works in a large steel mill here in Ohio where they are doing the same things.
Unlike a lot of the people on this board, I've done A LOT in my somewhat short lifetime. It's amazing what some experience does for your ability to talk about things.
BTW, thanks for putting up the pictures Jarrod, I didn't know you'd done it.
"Made in USA" from the tubing, to the hangers, to the mufflers, flanges and welding.
Not that I care, there's good stuff from China and of course Japan. It's a matter of cost and pride in keeping my guys working and anyone else I can in the states.

i think , a Bushur exhaust is an exelent product. So stop bashing it . We start this with the Dyno numbers,remember?
altough i highly doubt, same set up, only cat-back difference ,/same category cat-backs of corse/ will do 23 whp diff.

Who cares where the steel comes from, some of you guys argue over the stupidest things.
We all know that Buschur makes some of the best parts available, that's not the issue here. If these tests would have been done correctly from day one none of these other exhaust threads would be necessary. How hard is it to take two true 3" systems and test them?

Dave/Al, man as long as you guys make me power and parts for my ride you will get a couple good months of grocery money from me. You guys are alright, keep up the good work and keep that information coming.
