blitz or buschur

A few days ago I ordered a blitz cat back for about 600 bucks and shipping. Now my dumb*** just saw where buschur is selling his turbo back exhaust for 750. My question is should I just sell the blitz for about what I paid and order the TBE from buscher, or keep the blitz and just order a down pipe to go with it.

Would getting the down pipe and cat back be somewhat comparable to the TBE? I mean HP wise. If so, I will just suck it up, but if they are way off I think I will dump the blitz for the buscher TBE.

If you ordered it a couple of days ago, I'm assuming it hasn't already been shipped to you. Just call the vendor you ordered it from and tell them you want to return it. As long as it's not opened it should be no problem.

And yes...Definitely go with Buschur.

my bad, I ordered last thursday. My "few days ago" is kinda generic I would do what you say though, but I got the tracking number yesterday, so its on its way. I guess I can always send it back, but I need to go back over their terms of sale to see their stance on that.

I am not a fan of the buschur exhaust components, they are effective but not top notch in my book.

If you want a pretty exhaust keep the Blitz, if you want rattles/loud cheap looking exhaust go for the buschur. I am sure I will get flamed as I usually do.

I am a fan of Megan turbo back for the money.

Yes evocolorado, you will get flamed. Buschurs exhaust is effective but not the best looking. The price is not bad either.

I want a decent looking exhaust, but I really want the most hp I can get. Thats why the buschur TBE deal caught my eye. From what I have read they seem to put down some of the most hp, if not the most hp, of any exhaust systems. So I guess I really want performance over looks.

It looks great, thats why I bought it in the first place . Its just that I wish I would have saw buschur's deal before I pulled the trigger. You wouldnt know what type of numbers the blitz puts down would you.

Honestly, Who the hell cares how it looks? If you want looks get the buschur TBE with magnaflow option with the angled tip......and polish it if you want. There isnt any other exhaust for the pricepont that can compete with it's performance. I've had mine on for over 50K miles and it is the best bang for the buck out there. Make sure you get the highflow cat too. Also, Buschur has been the best aftermarket parts company that I have ever dealt with. Thier service is top notch!

if you want performance.... buschur is the way to go. i have the catless tbe on mine, sounds good (louder than most would like but fine for me), performs good... what more could you want for that price? sick part is, the exhaust on my car is actually 2nd hand. when my buddy sold his evo, i picked it up off of him. fitment is great & never had a problem with it. it saw 25k on his car & has now seen 17k on my car. no signs of trouble thus far.there isnt much bling factor but...... its lighter than any dsm exhaust i dealt with in the last 7 years & it flows. if the tip is your main problem with the "looks" (who is going to look under your car), buy the tip that you want & take it to midas muffler & have them replace it. i like the buschur tip because there is no bling, it looks semi stock.... but it sure don't sound like it.

I never said I didnt like the looks of the buschur, I just said the blitz looked great. The Buscher looks fine to me. From what you guys say, the TBE seems to be the way to go for HP. I just need to find someone who wants to buy a blitz now.

/think nice thoughts...think nice thoughts/

I have to agree with evocolorado that its not the most eye or ear easy but yes it gets the job done. It does create more hp than my current exhaust, but the fitment I think sucks.
