The best thing you can do with this exhaust is add the Magnaflow Muffler and it sounds awesome, it has a drone but you get used to it quick. Once you open it up its ammmmmazzzzing.

Most exhausts are better than Oem..

When i switched to one of these and went for a retune i picked up 11hp and about 8tq on a mustang dyno. Not to mention the gains across the whole rpm range.

Tell me if they hold up in a year. My OEM lasted for 9 years. Can you say the same with these knockoff?

Yup, I could honestly say it will last probably longer. When I sold my car with that exhaust on it, there wasn't a speck of rust on it.

You can hate on this exhaust all you want, but at the end of the day it is piping, that is set up better than the factory. Also it is dirt cheap!

No hate. I've seen a few people with these set up. All of them say fitment was horrible.

My fitment was great, the OBX headers I had wasn't that great, but they worked

I had the Godspeed version. But at the end of the day, I had OBX longtube headers and a dual HKS knock off exhaust for $700 shipped to my door, most exhausts on the market are more than $700, and I replaced everything from my heads back!

Default Beluga cat back on Ebay

Has anyone bought this system or heard it.
The price seems awfully good:

Just buy one with good reviews on their ebay page and have an experienced shop put it on and you should be fine. I've had mine for about a year and it's still as shiny as it was the day I got it and still sounds amazing and very not lawnmower like, but that's with the magnaflow x-pipe.

That's where the muffler bearings are located and this exhaust isn't designed to allow a cat delete.

I've had mine since 2008.

Put it on in San Diego, went to Europe and banged the exhaust around through the terrible roads of Italy. Survived the wet and snowy weather of Germany and France and scraped it along the asphalt of the Nurburgring. It's now in the Northwest where it has been nothing but constant rain. Still holding up.

Default HKS replica v2?

Was browsing eBay and I saw this. There's several vendors that sell them around $300 and they look... Different! Looks like they did away with the sad excuse for an H pipe, did different resonators and a different style tip. Anyone running this?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/181696016838

Here's one thats polished. Has a lot more pictures too.

No X or H on a dual? Its a 350z not a civic, pay more than 300 bucks for an exhaust.

In the old days, people used to risk their lives in India or in the Americas in order to bring back products which now seem to us, to have been of comically little worth.

This is a picture of my eBay HKS knockoff after 3 years driven only in nice weather (no snow) and one year in Chicago (all year long). As you can see, these exhausts aren't meant to last very long. Just a heads up
