Steel is not that expensive. Once the vendors stop raping us then I will buy tubing from them. The stuff is dirt cheap.
Ebay exhausts work just fine and hold up just fine. Even if you cut the canister off and replace it with something else it is still a good deal.

Does look good. Does sound reasonable. I have not heard another exhaust that I said "damn, son, that (insert name brand here) sounds mad tight jdm, yo." Plus, it is probably more free flowing than most of the name brand exhausts you can buy. We are after performance, aren't we?

I am pretty sure there are quite a few parts on our cars that are made in the same manner.

You should buy an exhaust from one of our vendors here and SUPPORT companies that SUPPORT OUR Evo community.

Then tell the Vendors to quit selling their exhaust for $600+ and raping the Evo Community. Im partnered in on an exhaust shop, and know how much they cost to make.
I had 3 different exhaust on my car. Ebay 3+ years sold it to a boy 2 years ago and he still has it, Buschur- Nice but slip fit fell off twice and had to end up welding it all together, my shops custom made.

If you want to splurge money like that, by all means go ahead. But don't come in here and directly tell someone NOT to buy something. You've already said your quote twice, you don't need to say it more than once. Let him make his own ****ing decisions.

If my EVO did'nt have an exhaust on it when I bought it. $1000+ system may I add. I would have had one custom made or bought an EBAY hands down. I'd never pay 1000 for a exhaust.
Funny thing is I'd be willing to bet that if I took my 1000 exhaust off and put the Ebay on it make more power LOL. The 1000 exhaust necks down in the muffler a little and the rear comes out staight to do this there are some unnecessary bends before the muffler.
The only reason I kept the 1000 dollar piece on the car was I used to DD so to sacrifice a couple hp for my sanity and not getting unwanted attention was worth it. Now I don't so i'll go to something custom or Ebay one in the near future. Neither will be even close to those stupid prices

Next, If your BR slipfit exhaust "fell off twice", then you should have it installed by a qualified shop. I and many many others have the BR slipfit exhaust and it does NOT fall off if you install it correctly.
If they really did support us, they wouldn't jack us up with prices like that. $600 in some places for a catback??? Or less than $100 for a TBE? I mean seriously, wake up. If I could go back in time, I would've just gotten the Ebay exhaust and saved myself close to $1k.

Who do you think pays for this site? Who does all the R&D so EVO run better and faster? I know for sure its the vendors of this site and not any Ebay vendors.
Also, theres many vendors that sell quality exhaust for less then 1K.
Last, Im not forcing anyone to do anything or not letting people make "their own ****ing decisions". Im just saying people should think about about supporting OUR community. If everyone went and bought Ebay TBEs, then there would be NO EvoM.net.

I wouldn't buy that eBay garbage, my friend bought it and it seemed ok for about a month then it began to rust through and one of the hangers fell off. Its honestly a waste of money because now hes paid for that exhaust and an ams one when he could have bought the ams one in the first place... "you get what you pay for"
