look at those cheap exhaust

I was looking for an exle back exhaust on ebay......I know I know you guys are not very fans of ebay stuff. at first I wanted and test pipe to stick with the stock exhaust. but my friend did it with is MR and it didnt had any sound at all. So I want to putt an axle back to the stock cat. yes I know it sound ridiculous to stay with the stock cat. but here cops are very mad,lol. and I really dont want to make to much noise just a little bit more.

heres what I found. both exhaust have a good brand...these are not unknown brands.....here are the link give me news on that.

really do love that megan. just wouldnt putt that test pipe. nice exhaust.

You should be concerned with making more power and not more sound. I thought we grew out of this back in high school.

They both look good, Exhaust isnt complicated, don't let guys on here deter you. For the most part its just 3 inch stainless pipe. I would just make sure of the flow of the mufflers. The second muffler does look good. Makes busher and AMS designs look old. I still like UR exhaust best

hahaha not everyone wants 700hp. my 300hp is good enough and I'm happy with it. if the stock exhaust would be making more noise I would have stick with it. And by the way more noise=more power. thats my point of view, but I understand yours with your hp.

just want to make sure that everyone understand I don't want the sound of a civic. I would love to have the exhaust note of a G37 or a 370z. its not that loud and its good for neighbours,lol.

Any DECENT exhaust is going to make more power, I always buy exhaust for the sound. More power is useless if it takes away from the enjoyment of your car.

People on here are running both exhausts, you should be happy with either really.

The second one is the Tsudo Exhaust. It sounds really nice I'm probably going to get that one myself.

Sure you will make more power than with the stock exhaust, thats the easy part. But you get what you pay for. Crack welds, crooked exhaust hangers, crooked exhaust tips, cheap flanges, cheap mufflers that break, the list goes on. You buy from the big guys like AMS perrin, bushard, ect, you pay for good quality products, where people have done the resarch and design the exhaust. This is why i would never get a custom exhaust because it ends up looking like ****. Any one can weld, i can even weld, but can i weld good? Am i a certified welder? No! As far as i know, it could be a 10yr old kid mass producing the exhaust. Better hone up those welding skills cause your going to need it!

Both the Megan and the Tsudo exhaust are using robotic tig welding. I don't see any problems with that. As for the hangers if it happens to be something that needs attention then I will correct it. It will still be significantly cheaper than the exhausts mentioned by red dragon. I'm all for quality but there are some parts where you can cut corners and get away with it.

I was in the same boat as you but on the other hand it makes putting the stock cat back on easy. I also heard that they are making a full 3in without the 2.5 transition. I don't really think it will make that big of a difference either way though.

I just saw the Tsudo sample youtube vid... really impressed with the exhaust note. Aggressive & not loud at all. What do you guys think? The CBE is under $400 on ebay... tempting!
