Yay and Nay. Very often these type of TB comes with wrong hardware, brackets that don't match, cheap gaskets that break, crack or bent and last but not least the materials used have more tendency to rust or corrode easily.
The good news is that for a $290 it might work but base on experienece that is a hit or miss situation. My friend from this forum (GT35R) bought a TB from ebay for his Evo 8 MR and despite I told him not too it fell off on the road while he was driving.. also he called me xxxxxx times the day he got it asking me for help because it would not fit properly.
I originally suggested him a Greddy Evo II (perfect fit) but he refused . Botton line, watch out for thailand or chinese copycats for half price. (no ofense to anyone)

Let me though you another option that many people prefer. Go to a known shop and have them custom built you one. You can get a perfect fit downpipe for $139-149 from this forum vendors then have the shop make you a 3" tube and the choice of muffler. You can't go wrong like that.
I actually like that one from ebay. It looks very much like the one that logic perfromance sells.

+1 on possible fitment and corrosion issues.
For $240 more you can get a high quality Borla exhaust with a million mile warranty - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=8059056662
I love mine.

Do not buy from this guy.
I bought and i never recieved the item. He gives on fake tracking numbers and doesnt ship.
The only way i got my money back was to open a dispute.
Do not waste your time. I waited 4 weeks, got a fake fedex number and opened up a dispute with paypal.
If i remember correctly he was kicked off of ebay. Check under his feedback
I checked last week it said he was a no longer registered user. He must have opened his account again.
The only reason i say not to buy is because i tried to purchase the exact same item for him and never recieved it.
