I will go with the age old tale of
"lets say you're driving along the road with your family. and you're driving along...la li la... and there is a truck tire in the middle of the road and you hit the brakes. EEERRR! wow that was close! now lets see what happens when you are driving with the other guys brake pads. you're driving along, driving along and all of a sudden the kids are yelling from the back seat, ' i gotta go to the bathroom daddy!' 'NOT NOW DAMN IT!' TRUCK TIRE! EERRR I CANT STOP! HELP! THERE'S A CLIFF...AAAHHH! AND YOUR FAMILY IS SCREAMING, 'OH MY GOSH WE'RE BURNING ALIVE! NO! I CANT FEEL MY LEGS!' here comes the meat wagon...weoweoweo. the medic gets out and says, 'oh my gosh!' the new guy in the corner puking his guts out::uuugggghhh uuuggghhh:: All because you wanted to save a couple extra pennies haha to me it doesn't... "
Cheap welds plus back fire and heat = blown up exhaust. Hey anything can happen.

To be honest, im surprised theres no drone but when you get on it, it gets loud... Same as other exhausts. Im surprised of the gain on this exhaust. We put it on a Mustang Dyno and it made more than 20hp and 20tq. I only have intake with stock cat back then and everything else stock.

also the mufflers are universal spec-d. I only heard them on civics before and was never impressed. I will try to put this on by next week. It should be a good laugh

well, it is a cheap exhaust... so no surprise there about the welds and the cuts and bends. im just not sure how long will this exhaust last though and it seems that there might be some small leak somewhere too.
in any case, post up some vid when you can.

I'm sure it'll last forever. It's steel! polished steel, but never the less steel and THICK. This thing will never win at the weight side for a review but theres plenty of material to rust. The welds on the otherhand......... I threw it around the yard and nothing broke off soooooo it passed the redneck test.
It still is a sad piece off pipework. I'm sure baby jesus shed a tear. Spec-d is a crappy muffler but still...... it's a crime what they did to the mufflers.
