Anyone tried this Ebay exhaust?

Yeah, it's probably not what is says in some way, shape or form. But I have to ask since it's $200 shipped. For one, I'm skeptical because of the generic pictures, and posted for the wrong car. But I emailed them, twice, and they said it's 2.5" (think the ad says 3") and it will bolt on. Maybe the rear hanger will have to change like the Megan exhaust for newer models. Here's the link, I'm curious but... dunno if I'm curious enough to potentially waste money.

Yea, it's made out of good material, so I figure if it bolts up and it's atleast 2.5" (for FI guys, future plans for me) you can't go wrong. However, is it all that, ha? They said it is bolt on and is atleast 2.5", must taper to 2.75 to the muffler I'm guessing. Add a resonator and be good to go maybe. Still undecided if I want to be a test dummie tho...

dont waste ur money, you can get a local shop to put new piping on for cheaper than that

Yea, problem is there's no mandrel benders around here. Local shops do press and compression bends. Just saw this figured I'd see if anyone else tried it already.

you could always ask us lovely JBO members to point you towards shops that you could buy mandrel bends from and have the shop near you weld them up for you

www.mandrelbend.com << i've dealt with him and hes been nothing short of awesome so far, and cheapest bends i've found thus far

Ask them how thick the tubing is. From the pics it looks pretty thin.

Also, looks like compression bends instead of mandrel.

mandrel bends leave marks in the tubing , and they show worse because the system is polished

it doesnt look to bad , id say its worth getting and trying , if you dont like the muffler then cut it off and change it

I just got mine from Ebay and the thing doesn't even fit right. It's atleast 4 inches too long and the hangers are a mess (wrong direction or just plain wrong). Now I have to fix it at my expense. Plus, when it got to my house after way too long of shipping the box was partially open and the clamp was missing. Yea, it was cheap (170 shipped) and relatively good quality but it's gonna be a headache to fix and my car is laid up for like 3 days now. I got it from Speedy Racer Performance so yea stay away from them.
