Anyone got this exhaust? Built quality looks decent. It's awfully cheap...

They make some good cheap exhausts, although they make some ones that are misaligned as well, had a friend that bought one for his wrx and the right exhaust tip was an inch higher than the left one, half the exhaust was crooked.

But then again I had another friend that bought a catback for his s2k and had no problems. I think if you call them out on it they'll be responsive and send you another one. Their shop is semi-local for me.

I had one on my e36 m3. Although the quality was good. The fitment was bad and I had to have an exhaust shop heat up the mounts and bend them. And it still didn't ever fit perfectly.

$399 is kind of steep for muffler only that may not fit so hot. I paid $399 for my Tsudo full catback that required a little tweaking to line up...

For the price there are plenty of exhausts that people have experience with. I wouldn't bother.

^^ Coming from the guy that absolutely recommended any exhaust you could find for 07 and earlier WRX. Making a functional exhaust is stupid easy, but making a dual tip exhaust line up consistently is something I wouldn't gamble my money on.

That's not really cheap if you consider that a real exhaust like a Greddy SP Elite is only $186 more and comes with a mid pipe and is higher quality.

I agree ^ for a catback this would be an excellent deal, even if the fitment is off you could just bend it and save some money. I told george, one of the reps there, he should make a UEL header and he said there's one in the works and should be out in the next year or so

From what I can tell, this is the same format as the SP Elite - both systems are just an axleback muffler.

It looks just like a SP Elite clone, albeit with a bit different canister design. I would spend a little more and just get the SP Elite over this.

It would be nice if you can get him on our vendor list. I'd like to see some test results on their FRS/BRZ systems.
