I wouldn't be so sure. Intensemotorsports didn't put their name on a megan pipe cause it was cheap quality.

Hi but i'm just looking the Pro 1 are really similir of the Invidia RSR...

So about Y and Cat i have see it again on Intense Motorsports but it's impossible the different, always are over 400$ and they 200$...

My friend have take it form UltimateZ, the some cat at the some price.

I don't know every parts are really similar!

The DC headers are the some of Megan Racing for me...

P.S. where i can find a file with RASP sound?i never understand about it!

JIC Y Pipe is too big at 80MM (3.15 inches). Unless you get an exhaust with a diameter of 80MM or greater, which there are very few of.

Tanabe has one of the highest build qualities of any company... they have some kind of certification on the parts and materials they use. Not sure if JIC has the same certification, but I doubt it.

That said, the JIC does look like it flows much better. The long, gradual joined weld section should create less turbulence compared to the shorter one on the tanabe.
