Ultimate Racing, quality?
Hi all, I am debating between a "Ultimate Racing" over/front pipe combo vs a "Nameless". And I was wondering how does the quality compare between the two. Does anyone have experience with these two?
Ultimate Racing is 2.75" Nameless is 2.5" |

I have an Ultimate racing cat back system. The quality of the welding is great, however the accuracy of the pipe assy sucks. My system was so low where it goes over the rear cross member, it was totally undriveable. A second system Fensport imported for another client was fine.
In addition to this, their communications were great, until they received payment. There after, it is possibly the worst customer service I have ever experienced, emails are totally ignored. In conclusion, my advice based on my experience - avoid them like the plague! |

I had a UR catback on my speed3. It was fantastic quality and the fitment was perfect. I have no experience with their 86 stuff though.

Thanks you guys for the heads up. I am actually leaning more toward the Nameless just because of good rep. The reason why I was considering the Ultimate Racing was because its 2.75" and I thought it may pair well with my Greddy EVO 3 catback which is also a 2.75"

I know in the Evo community people had issues with the flanges rusting on UR exhausts in areas that use allot of salt in the winter. Other than that they seem to be decent.
