Espilir JGT 500 catback

I just installed it a couple days before Christmas and it was really quick and easy to install. It has a great low rumble sound to it and i think it looks really good. Two of my friends have evo's and one has an AMS exhaust and the other has a Buschur, both catback. They both agreed that they liked mine better than both of theirs. Thumbs up for the Espilir exhaust.

Sound and looks are great and all, but I want to know about weight, power and build quality and how durable it is.

Anyway, pics?

+1, I love the fact they come with a silencer, but the fact that they need one always makes me wonder

If any one is interested, I purchased mine in 2003 and I still believe it is one of the best cat-back exhausts on the market as long as you are using the factory cat (flange reducer built in). This year I had an AZ shop duplicate the cat pipe section except without the reducer and without the resinator. I went to a true 3" HFC. It's now basically a polished SS straight pipe with an O2 bung welded in about the same place (moved it 1/8" lower for better underbody clearance). I recall it costing me $130-150 including shipping. Better than buying a new exhaust.

If anyone is interested in replacing the pipe section starting at the cat for better flow, pm me and I can give you more details.
