Excuse me but how do you get from the catalytic converters back with this exhaust? I see only one pipe leading to the muffler. And there are two catalytic converters. Someone explain? Thanks.

It's not "catback", it's a Y-pipe Back exhaust.

I have a problem buying something from somebody that can't spell or use proper english - it just doesn't convey professionalism. If they can't put the quality into their advertising, how do you think they're doing with their product???

BTW, I'm referring to:

Exahust
Daul
Polish Stainless Steel Lights Weight (I didn't know the Poles were making SS).

true, i agree but then again everyone makes mistakes, i understood that it has to be y-pipe back, theres a differance in the idiot that posted this on ebay and the person who manufactured it. but i am willing to test it out and see what kinda of system it is, even if it suck i still havent lost much. I know with the release of F&F3 i could resell it for more in 2 mos.

You get what you pay for. Go cheap (esp. an ebay company pos) and you will get cheap. I wouldn't put that on my car; get a quality made exhaust from a respected manufacturer or keep the stock exhaust.

It looks just like the Megan exhaust. For the price I would try it out too. But I already got my nismo that makes great noise but feel no gain at all.

looks like the new Megan titanium tip exhaust. I saw this on ebay a while back also; if you want to try something different (and be somewhat of a guinea pig) then go for it. It does look like it might be a gamble- a flip-flopped image, "02" 350z designation, incorrect grammar, etc. But if the price is right, and you dont mind trying something new, go for it and make sure you report your findings.

For $250.00, I'm sure you get what you pay for.

hey MI, tell us how it goes if you do purchase it. I'm guessing you have the REVUP motor, I have a 06 enthusiast myself and I was contemplating on a exhaust also. BTW your car looks awesome with that drop.

Honestly, those manufacturers who sell it at a higher price dont use higher quality parts. Everyone has to understand that just because a part is very expensive doesnt mean quality is unsurpassed. Yes I agree out of 1000 exhausts, hks or greddy will have better quality welds and warranty. But the megan will do just fine in terms of sound and looks. Nobody even keeps exausts for years and years, they move on to bigger and better exhausts. I'm not necessarily saying "megan" exhausts are the best, but lets not overlook these "budget" type exhausts because of price. Lets give these companies a chance. Just my 2 cents...

Thanks, I went ahead this morning and ordered it from him for 209 + 65 shipping & 5 insurance.

so 279 shipped is what my Megan Ti Exhaust cost me. We will see how it sounds its a relatively inexpensive gamble, but it is worth a try... I can definatly rock this for a few mos until i goto ST and then switch to AAM. until then i wont have lost to much for a decent looking mod.
