@Cole

Lemme know if it at least sounds good. Did you get the one with one canister or two canisters?

One can. Probably won't be installing it. Just going to try and sell it

Will probably be the last rare-ish JDM piece I ever buy.
Which exhaust did you get?

Or should I wait til you post it in Canada Classified section?

Ugh, my gas station chain now charges a $0.50 premium for premium gas.

Leg sport.

Now that I think about it, @jawn I'll probably toss it on real quick this weekend. If I like the sound more than the Kakimoto, I'll probably keep it.

Or we can work something out if you want to buy it

The welds and what not are OK. Just the amount of scratches and stuff that are on it are unacceptable in my opinion. And having the vendor say it's comparable to Borla doesn't make it any better

Edit: I mean, I'm no stranger to JDM stuff, and it's always been top notch. I did not expect to get an exhaust with mandrel bend marks still on it, a big long, deep scratch on one of the pipes and various nicks... Just seems... Off, you know?

Ah~ gotcha. That make sense now. My friend is full track geek, so he doesn't give a damn about scratches.

Well, if you install it, make sure to take some vid to hear how it sounds

Really, I'm probably just nit picking at this point. But for the money it costs to buy, I expected more. Not to mention, when it got shipped, it was in a BIG box, and the axle back was in a plastic bag, with bubble wrap on the muffler can and bubble wrap on the tip. Nothing else.

I had the same quality packing on my bargain basement CNT header.

My Gruppe-s header came bubblewrapped to death, and that's already on the cheap end. Very shiny.
