I don't understand all of the negativity regarding this, it really is amazing.
For me, I purchased the XO2 because at the time, I didn't think I would keep it very long. For the price, it's a pretty great buy, even when it was $595 shipped and even more now that it's cheaper on Ebay. As for me being cheap; sure I bought a cheap part. But it isn't really a question about how much I can afford. If you can get an XO2 on ebay, spray it with some anti-rust enamel (mine is still rust free, who knows) and upgrade to the tips on this thread, I think it's a pretty great buy. If you don't like the exhaust, I don't see the need for constant belittling, even after the OP asked for non-XO2 owners to keep their comments to themselves.
I've gotten nothing but compliments on mine, that is all I know.

what kind of rust enamel do you use? My tips keep rusting after a 3 weeks of reburning them. I was gonna use high temp clear coat after I reburn them again, but it makes it hazy and I want clear!

quit overexaggerating with people's responses.
i dont think anyone has called you an idiot for spending $1,200 on an exhaust. thats a common price for a nice exhaust, especially TD. i definatley would.
but im keeping my opinion on x02 > nismo

you know u love when people turn their heads when they see your car...cuz i sure do. so i dont get what u mean by that haha cuz it sounds dumb.
i know this would ***** nismo owners off, but id rather have an x02 than a polished stock exhaust. and you say u dont buy wannabe parts, then why are you rocking an evo-r V1 lip rather than a veilside?

I understand some people don't have any rust and are doing fine.. more power to them. Like I was stating.. I could care less what you guys want. It's a forum.. throwing my opinion out as a friendly chat. (Hence buying you guys a beer even though I have a lowly Nismo
)Oh and I Certainly, certainly do not have a problem with true duals.. Haha. Why would I? I just don't know which one I like... and btw I dynoed similar numbers versus people with true duals(actually higher than some), but I know true duals usually gain a little more. (depending on TD too)Cheers

OH, and one more thing. No I don't want to be "too" attractive. If you want the people behind you to notice your coffee cans, then go right ahead. I'm just stating my opinion. If you can't handle it, than that's your problem...and not mine.
Like i stated before. The xo2 exhaust is truly a good deal. At 400 shipped or so for a TD exhaust...it can't be beat. However, rusting is not excusable. I'd rather rock a stock exhaust than buy a bang for the buck exhaust that's going to rust. Nice try, maybe next time

how truely is xo2 exhaust a great deal? if you pay 500 for an exhaust that has no r&d, its a replica. im with dude that posted a while back, people are cheating out true brand companies by buying copy cats that do not perform the same. its been proven. as far as rusting, that can always be fixed and welds can be repaired.

If veilside had come out with their lip when I had bought the car, than that's what I would have got. I don't go around preaching about how good my lip is. In fact, i tell people to stay away from them, and learn from my mistakes. I'm not like you on here trying to explain why a replica is better than the actual thing.
