Depo Racing downpipe?
 
I found this on amazon and it looks like a pretty good deal. It replaces both front and over pipe for a similar price as say, a Berk catted front pipe so it looks like good value--if it's any good that is.

My question is: has anybody used it? If so, do you have anything to say about it? How about the company itself? Thanks in advance

The seller was generous enough to give plenty of photos.

Nobody has anything to say?

First date available on amazon was 27 Oct, probably just have to give it time or try it yourself and write a review :) Maybe contact the seller? That joint towards the front looks a tiny bit sketchy...

Berk seems to have proven themselves on here if that helps.

After looking at that cat in there, this thing is crap.

I guess so, but I'm not going to take the risk. I'd be much more comfortable with a Berk product. Besides the gains from the overpipe won't be significant and i'm afraid the additional part will make the stock catback raspy. Thanks for the feedback

You could be right. The uncatted version costs exactly the same

The magnaflow high flow cats are much more expensive. They're commonly used in my front pipes across many cars. They don't rob horsepower like that front pipe will.
