pseudo: (often used in combination) not genuine but having the appearance of; "a pseudo esthete"; "pseudoclassic"

tsudo: my definition is a brand name that has been around for a while. Never really got high up in the performance market, but has been around for a while. They are kinda like megan, but with less popularity and diversification. Friend had just a tsudo muffler long time ago on his civic and it sounded nice, not ricey.

Are you kidding? 10-15hp over stock is all I had to hear.

My friend used to have a Tsudo exhaust on his old N/A Eclipse. The drone inside the car was unbearable, it almost gave me a headache.

Looks like a decent exhaust for the price.

I don't know why people get bothered with HP claims. True or not, manufacturers claim HP gains regardless of the product, this is nothing new.

This is a statement I hear over and over but I don't understand...

If you were offered a brand name TV for $1000 more then the same non-brand name TV which one would you take? Also many of these non-brand names are owned by the name brands...

NOT trying to attack you mna I'm just thinking outloud.

Makes you wonder if their cabinets and refrigerators are stocked with store brand food in order to afford name brand parts.

They are pipes. I wonder how half-assed they can be. Like the X02 exhaust eh?
