Any idea what exhaust this is?
 
Saw this on eBay but it doesn't have a name brand or anything. I messaged the seller and they told me it was made by RDT motoring and they were stationed in China but sell out of California. Anyone with experience with this part? The seller has great reviews but I was looking for sound clips. It'd advertised to increase 15-20 hp. I'm pretty interested in it if it's a quality and legit part.

It looks like cheap flea-bay stuff to me. Personally, I'd steer clear. I think people have had good success with the Manzo stuff, as well as the J2 stuff, both priced similarly.

I would be very surprised to see an exhaust get us 15-20hp

Nevermind the almost guaranteed low quality, the tips are UGLY.

Sounds like you want more power. If you plan on doing exhaust mods, you'll probably want to stick with 2.5" piping throughout if you're staying N/A. In the ad, it lists the pipe diameter as 2.25". I am surprised it's tig welded...

Catbacks don't make much power if at all, I think. But with a smaller inner dia. you'll be bottlenecking your exhaust.

Ugh, tiny pipes inside massive tips...

Legit part? Yes, you get what you see.

Quality? Sure, the advertisement suggests this makes your car a GT-R after you install it.
