Taking off this, putting stock ones on, then buying a new exhaust, taking off stock exhaust off, then putting the new one in.. seems like too much of a hassle so I'm not sure if I'll even do it..
But to answer your question, I really don't know. Depends on what I get offered since not a lot of people sell this, so I don't have an idea as to how much to ask.

Yup, like I said before it's a good exhaust for $300 but for $500 I'm going in a different direction. Probably Invidia or Injen.

Greddy SP2 is a good axle back exhaust system for less than $500 shipped. For around $600, there are plenty of good exhausts to choose from. Top Speed was OK for $300, not worth $500 IMO.

I personally was looking forward to buying one when they became available but I refuse to pay $200 more than what it was selling for just a few months ago when it was established as a $300 product.

These eBay sellers got greedy and thought they can sell them all day for $500+. Like I said, I was quoted $320 a few weeks ago and MR2Liter raised the price to $500 a week later. If they kept it at $300+, they would have been sold out by now. I'll be suprise if they've sold a set already.
My recommendation for anyone looking for an exhaust system is checkout the classifieds section for either new or used ones. There are plenty of better exhaust systems for around $500-$600. You can even buy used true duals for around $600 (Borlas, Injens, NISMOs). I bought my Injen SES for $350.
Just look around and you will find some great bargains on better exhaust systems.

On a side note we have dyno tested this exhaust to add 11whp. I think $450 for 11whp is a great deal.

Well, I commend you, sir. But, how were the runs done? Was it just the y-pipe back vs the stock? Silencers in or out? Any other mods done from the lower hp run to the higher hp run? Details please?
If it turns out that the y-pipe back alone w/o silencers put down that much.. which I doubt as the tq should be lower than stock in the lower rpm's, then I guess I'll keep my y-pipe back pro-1.
