Last time i checked there we're about 3 for sale just in pa alone on craigslist bud. Not everyone is as ballsy as some of us. Most sell them due to the noise and always getting pulled over. I don't have that issue with cops. They never get me in the first place.
This is just one of those things, different strokes for different folks. Also the comment about how many fast cars are running ebay exhausts. Thats like saying how many cars are running a stock cat back with a 3" cut out. Some people are hustlers so they don't necessarily advertise/***** their cars. Nevermind actually seeing a track. The numbers are there. The fitment it was meant for (non-acd) is there. And weld a nice carbon ti muffler on it and you'll have a better system than the hks unit. Not to mention no neck downs.
Now would i ever be caught dead with one on my car? Hell no, thats why i upgraded from dsm's to an evo. But they're also nothing to sneeze at.

agreed. I had the exhaust for a short period of time and had it when I got tuned. Car still made the power so i have no complaints in that department. Only thing I will say about it is that it hangs very low at the rear near the rear axle. Not low enough to really scrape or anything but I did not like the low hanging look.

And the sound isn't as desirable as the HKS exhaust. But hey, for $250 I'm not complaining. Again, the sound doesn't sound BAD, but its just not as GOOD sounding as the rest of the competition. Then again, I'm not about to pay an extra $500 for the sound...

i have an exhaust from austraila on my car.
no brand name but damn it sounds sexy and it feels like great as well.
i took a look at the ebay exhaust once there are no fitment issues go for it, its extremely hard to mess up 3" stainless steel exhaust . the straighter the better BTW.

Here is what you do. Buy the ebay exhaust then when someone asks you what it is just say "it's custom". That way you sound cool, and no one will know the difference. Man, sometimes saving a few hundred dollars is better than a throatier exhaust tone and a couple of whp. Now, ebay intercoolers stay away from them. Just follow your heart that's what I always do.
