You paid for quality at the dealership, pay the people who actually developed the original quality parts as opposed to the sweat shops that make bad copies.

I have heard of other "big brands" having slight fitment issues also... The fitment issue on this exhaust was not a big deal at all.
And basically I think your argument is not one of quality, but of character. You are mad at those of us who purchased this exhaust because you think it is a knockoff from some name brand in the states.
The quality and performance of this exhaust cannot be debated, period. For $300 you get what most people get for $1,000. But if you want to debate the moral issues behind purchasing this exhaust do it on another forum.
This isn't a thread about right and wrong bud, its a thread about a damn good exhaust. And you're all right "you get what you pay for"... I spent $300 and got a great exhaust... I GOT WHAT I PAYED FOR!

Look at my pics and all the other pics of this exhaust, it doesn't stick out of the bumper AT ALL. Its morons like you that keep the rest of us from finding a truly good deal when its out there.

exactly... I wont be buying an ebay turbo, and I'm almost certain I wont buy an ebay FMIC but come on an exhaust is really hard to mess up, I considered bending and welding my own.
AWDTurbo4 will you please stop spamming this thread. It's supposed to be informative and you posting 3 times in a row with useless stuff isn't helping. Thanks

Well we can be sure it wasn't a knockoff of an exhaust made by someone who R&D'd on a car with acd.
Beat it to fit, paint it to match!

hahaha amen, amen.... if this is a knockoff then that means there's a real "QUALITY" exhaust out there that doesnt fit just right.

Or the inital R&D was done on a car without ACD and those duplicating it couldn't take the time to get a latest version of that product to copy.
I do agree with you though 3" pipe is 3" pipe for the most part, how much did you have to pound it in to get it to not knock on your acd and if I were you I'd keep a very close eye on that for any contact being made. It's not going to take a whole lot of rubbing or knocking to start taking a toll on the TC.

i didn't have to pound it in much, read my original post. I will put it back up and check on it when I get a chance. Its really not as big of a deal as some of you guys like to make it seem.

I too have this exhuast, and my only grip was that one of the hangers literally broke off....it's because it hanges toooooooo low, and I'm betting made to much contact when I was driving over our sh!ttacular roads here (which are being completely reconstructed). Otherwise, sounds damn good and looks nice other than the huge can.
I ended up getting stronger hangers rewelded on; it wont move an inch now. If I get another evo, my next exhuast wold most likely have to be either a Megan, or the exact opposite: super expensive Trust Ti-R.
