I only trust known manufacturers I have seen many friends try to go the cheap route and every-time they get nailed and eventually fork out the cash. I would recommend ETS DP if your looking for one. They are very reasonably priced.

Yeah if you spent all this money on an Evo, why go and add questionable parts?

A downpipe from a performance parts dealer (like Kahrs reccommended) would be a safer bet. Quality downpipe will go for around $300-500.

Don't worry it bro. I'm not claiming to be an expert when it comes to Evo's, but I've had some experience with other "modder" cars and heard a lot of horror stories over the years, so I always err on the side of caution with this stuff.

The price is enticing but you'll be fighting to get it to fit.

Downpipe install is not something you want to do more than once I'd you can help it get a quality part.

ETS, MAP, AMS all quality dp.

I wouldn't trust random ebay knock off one espically with the amount of heat or flex it under takes.

You get what you paid for.

Fitment could be off with Ebay no-name brand. Do you want to risk it?
Quality also matters.

I always say that when a wannabe invites me to play basketball. But that is when "shorty's" want quality basketball talent on the court and aren't willing to pay for it. These are nothing more than exhaust pipes. I have an Ebay test pipe. Its all good.

A test-pipe is a bit less complicated than a down-pipe.
