for 140 bucks, your welds wont be great, the finish will probably not be that great, and the internals materials may not be so hot, but if it is a baffled turbo muffler, who cares really.

As much as Id never buy this for MY car, i tell ppl all the time how the exhaust on our cars does jack squat anyways other than change the sound unelss you ahve crazy FI.

So, i gotta say that this will probably be fine as well.

My biggest concern is the jig they use to mass produce and weld these.

If you get it and the tips dont point straight, and the hangers need to be redone becuase they are too short or bent wrong, then the exhaust was pointless. That will SURELY be your biggest issue.
BUT.. up to you man.

Well there is just no way that I would trust a $147 exhaust from eBay. Why don't you check out the marketplace here? There's plenty of used exhausts that you can find for a good deal. For the most part, there's nothing wrong with a used exhaust.

Yeaaaa dont do it. Buddy of mine got an axleback and had all the fiberglass things flying out the next day. Had to take the thing apart and re weld some of it and do other work to it. Too much trouble. Just save up for a name exhaust or get a used one.
