They are treating me well. They're great for the money, if you're staying NA. if you plan on going supercharged soon like I am I highly doubt that they can withstand all that extra pressure. And the flex joints on them make a seriously annoying rattle when you really get on the throttle. They're great for what they are. But I wouldn't recommend them. I'd save up the few extra bucks and get a known company. Just my honest opinion. I'm going to have to pick up a set of tomeis before i get my Jackson racing kit. And I have to say it kind of annoys me, just another expense😂

tskaohu 04-09-2016 03:32 PM

people always make the mistake of trying to find a less expensive option when modding their cars. dont buy cheap! You will regret it. not to say they dont work because they do just fine. but there is much better out there.

Yeah that's true a lot of people say the same thing, you get what you pay for. I really don't have a big budget to spend 600+on a part. I just ordered mine but ima talk to a few locals before I install it And get there opinion as well. But I really appreciate your feed back. I live like 30 mins away from the 1320 shop so if anything I could make the trip back and return them. According to one of their sale reps they're selling fast tho

Like I said. I'm still running them. And you'll be completely fine lol. I did find the instal a bit tricky. If your installing their overpipe as well then your more than likely gonna have to unbolt the right rear motor mount and prop your engine up a tad to be able to slide the stock overpipe out and to slide the new one in the subframe clearance for the pipe is a tight fit. You may be able to get it out. Depends on your car. Some people have the problem. Some don't. Also make sure you bolt up the gaskets tight. It's a pain and they like to come loose. You will need a wobble joint to be able to get the bolt under the long runner as well. A regular socket will not fit there lol.

StayPuft209 04-09-2016 04:51 PM

Yeah I'm probably gonna pick up theit op as well. And awesome thanks for the tips. Now I gotta play the wait game... and yeah I'm just looking for an a more aggressive sound, how's the sound it produces in your opinion?

tskaohu 04-09-2016 08:15 PM

It sounds great. You gotta replace the front pipe though. I have a hks exhaust and its resonated. And the stock front pipe is resonated. So I have double resonated. Which kills the sound ahah. Gonna add a berk front pipe asap so I can really enjoy the sound 😂

My exhaust isn't resonated, it's a nvidia n1 replica by spec d, the headlight manufacturer. I'll probably pick up the real n1 down the road. But I am replacing the factory op with the 1320 one as well. I have the stock front pipe on at the moment. I'm hoping it'll sound great nonetheless. I'm just dying to get it. 💀

UPDATE:
Purchasing a new catted front pipe. Trying to decide which one i should get.
Stuck between a berk Catted fp and a private label catted fp. Anyone who has one of these id love to hear a little review from ya so i can get some help to decide :P

it doesnt sound great currently due to my stock front pipe. its resonated from the factory and the hks exhaust comes with a resonator. Ill post some sound clips before and after once i have got my new front pipe on!:w00t:

Be sure to record yourself pranking TJ if you end up doing it... You should get some "totaled" or "ricer" stickers and put it on his car :laughabove:
