Manzo Exhaust
Manzo Exhaust
Does anybody here have a Manzo exhaust? I currently have a Spec-D installed from 4 years ago or so but I want to change up the sound a bit. It looks like the Manzo is pretty much straight through with no resonators or mufflers. How do you like it?
I recently snagged this exhaust to try out on my Evo for S&Gs - paid ~$350 for it and you definitely get what you pay for.
In comparison to my other exhausts from AMS and ETS the flanges are half as thick and whatever jig they're using to weld needs to be recalibrated. A couple of the pipes were extending out past the flanges a little and needed to be ground down flush so they wouldn't cause a leak.
Pipe routing seemed to be accurate and the sound is pretty raw. It's actually a little bit quieter on the inside of the car than my AMS titanium single exit - but louder outside, not quite as deep of a tone either.
cheap exhaust? yeah. worth $350? eh, probably. Is craftsmanship on par with AMS? not even close.
