also got mine from ebay. not too sure if same manufacturer..fitment is perfect.... i didn't use the test pipe but got a resonated one, also from ebay for about $50 shipped.... you won't regret it.... although right now i'm a little tired of the jdm slant and super shiny exterior...kinda like to have a stealthy looking one in the future.

Ebay exhaust
Take a look at the close-up of the silencer (below). The piping is barely 1 1/2". That is 1" LESS than stock. Sure you can remove it but then you will be really LOUD.
In addition, the muffler piping my be less than 3" (as previously mentioned) and it may have cheap, or no sound suppression material.
Buyer beware...

I doubt it would be much if any louder than the rest of the exhausts that are of similar design. As kyle first standed its hard to screw up pipe so even if the muffler sucks and its way to loud he could swap out the test pipe for a resonated one and buy a muffler he likes better and get it welded on at a muffler shop.
Its only $250 In my opinion you cant go that wrong

Where is the deal?
Start off by spending $250 + $50 for shipping
If you don't like the muffler, budget another $150 for a decent replacement (parts and shipping).
Now you have to find a quality shop who can TIG weld for another $150 and hope it looks good.
That's $600 for a system with no engineering behind it.
Just something to think about...

Now if you don't like the muffler and want to get another one, then that is a different story, and I agree with you.

All most of these companies do is take another popular name brand exhaust and make a copy of it.. I stand by my previous statement it should work fine and I think you will be happy with it

There are other less JDM expensive options also.
