Jonmotoring.com Exhaust?

So I just saw this while looking for exhausts and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with the setup.

Doesn't look to bad especially being only $330. Thoughts?

Looks like a really cheaply made exhaust. That would explain the price.

Personally, you don't know what to expect. I have a J2 quad tip catback that was only $500 and it sounds amazing.

I bought a HFC front pipe from jon motoring and the welds are better than my borla UEL.

I have a j2 catless front pipe and its great. It's a piece of pipe, not much to it to screw up, really. No rust or fitments issues, can't beat it for $100 shipped.

That doesn't take much.

My experience was the exact opposite. Shipping was super fast, price was right. Ymmv I guess.

Looks like an almost exact copy of the Invidia N1 catback. The pieces are segmented and shaped the same. The only difference are the flanges, fart cans, and lack of Invidia name plate. Either they just copied the design or it comes from the same factory with different parts.

That looks like an exact copy of an Invidia N1. Looks pretty much identical to the one on my car right now, minus the INVIDIA nameplate at the rear split

Thats super cheap, but doesn't look very pretty. Do give it a try and give us a review, I'm curious to see how it holds up over time.

The US made exhaust they sell looks pretty nice. Its $600, appears to be better quality then the other offerings on the site. Its VERY quiet though, which can be a good or bad thing.

It's also 2.75", which is nice when paired with the j2 2.75" front pipe. That's my plan. Should sound great with the turbo, not too loud.
