Top Speed Exhaust Ratings

Hi all; After some serious browsing/pricing etc., I have become interested in the Top Speed brand. First of all, ANY experience on reliability, fit, service in case of problems and so on. Mainly on the axle back unit...it's priced well below most other brands and I can find only a few reviews on their products. One review on a 370Z forum was scary. It is offered by one of this forums commercial suppliers. I'm not looking for super loud or a drone situation, just a deep mellow tone and the great looks of polished stainless steel. Any info will be appreciated. I was unable to find much reference to that brand in this forums many pages of exhaust category.
Thanks,

I just received an over pipe from Top Speed.

My initial impression is, compared to any other brand for double or triple the price there is no huge difference. It's 304 stainless, 2.5" OD, decent weld quality, mandrel bent, decent straight flanges, included nuts/bolts, gaskets ans lock washers too!

They called me to confirm when the shipment was sent and since they had only the OP/ front pipe combo in stock they split a set to ship me promptly.

Have heard good reviews and not sure why they don't get more exposure on the forums. Perhaps since they only sell directly, not thru vendors, and arent a registered vendor here.

From my experience, I say buy with confidence!

PS they make parts for high end Porcshes, Lambos, etc as well.

I just bought their pulley kit and short throw. IF you buy from them check their eBay store before you buy. I saw many posts say it's cheaper. When I bought the pulley and short throw the website had them both listed for 119$ish. When I went on eBay they were $73+ each so instead of buying one toy I got 2.
