I bought this and cut the muffler off and put an apexi N1 on. It was kind of raspy, not terrible but I didnt like it. Its a great money saver. However, get a down pipe with a flex pipe.

^ thats a good deal depending on shipping charges but you still need a down pipe and the thicker steel; you are adding weight.

I have not had any quality problems with ebay exhaust systems.

resonators and mufflers have large qualitative differences as well

As long as it is straight through 3in pipe is 3in pipe. I'd take the thin walled for weight savings. Hell Ive seen quite a few AL exhausts on here already

You'll not see a difference in the EBAY $200 exhaust vs some $3k Japanese piece. Hell the EBAY will out perform most of them as they neck down at mufflers 1/2 the time.

And I own a stupid 1200 dollar exhaust
