Went for this exhaust because I couldn't pass up the price. Installing as soon as I receive it. Will post some pics and some videos soon!

Curious to hear what you think and how it sounds. Keep us posted.

I bought their q300 knockoff and my only complaint is tha the slip fitting joining th emuffler to the midpipe leaks. Nothing an exhaust shop can't fix for cheap. Figment and alignment is spot on too, so I suspect yours should be good as well. I believe these are the same manufacturer as the top speed pro units that other members have tried.

Yes it is, I ended up using an accuseal clamp, fixed the issue for a but. Going to use a band clap next. Needs some stiffer exhaust hangers as well to keep it from shifting around when it's hot.

I am glad you mentioned that. That is something I didn't think about...

I havnt noticed any issue of movement, hot or not.

Update: Exhaust should arrive on Thursday. Pumped. I will get her on ASAP and then review time. I am getting a j2 catless front pipe as well. I will do review/video of just the catback and catback + front pipe. Stay tuned

Iand518 · 03-06-2014, 08:06 PM

I'd love to hear the catback under load. Like in a empty parking lot or just a drive by. The exhaust sounds so different under load VS standing still reving in the driveway. Hope you get it soon and I hope everything fits well.

So got the exhaust yesterday and have to say it looks awesome. Nice welds, solid construction, and 2.75 piping all around. Fitment was pretty good but the piping touches the chassis in the rear, however that wont be an issue with some longer torque solutions hangers. OK about the sound. Its deep and loud! A little too loud for my taste actually. If you had to compare this particular exhaust to others it would be comparable to the Topspeed V2 exhaust. The only difference is the piping size (Topspeed being 2.5) That being said the exhaust will be coming off. I kinda want something much quieter. It will be up for grabs in the for sale section. Thanks!

That is why I went with the q300 style setup. Imagine going full catless with that...

Iand518 · 03-08-2014, 11:32 AM

You say it touches chassis? Won't running the longer hangers cause the exhaust tips to not fit as well in the bumper holes?
I live in rural area and ground clearance is a concern. Did any of the piping hang lower than the stock exhaust?

Iand518 · 03-08-2014, 11:50 AM

If it's still on, a sound clip would be great.
