Agree its lame we as consumers have to do all the research work on parts.


I will be installing this weekend but here are some preliminary pics.


BIG box



Packaging was great as to not get hurt in transport.





Hard to see from the pic but the outsite diameter is 60mm claimed. Measured inside diameter is 56mm consistent all the front pipe and rear exhaust. Was hoping it would be exact match to the end of my overpipe which is 58mm inside diameter. Again at least its consistent all the way through to keep velocity high.





Here are the weights (my cat likes to be in every damn picture) :
Dual resonated Front Pipe - 8.25lbs



Midpipe - 13.25 lbs



axleback - 24.75



So the front should be about 2lbs lighter than stock and the total catback about the same as stock


Nicely polished really like the big tips on this




CON: I'm going to say this but the welds do not look clean especially compared to my no name(gruppe-s/ gent5) Uel headers. They are thick and lumpy but hopefully should hold up well. You can see where they burn through to the inner pipe on a few and will need to be grinded smooth





Explains why the price is nearly cut in half, A nice system if you don't look at the welds. But overall I'm very excited to hear this car roar with this setup. Stay tuned
