Yeah that's true a lot of people say the same thing, you get what you pay for. I really don't have a big budget to spend 600+on a part. I just ordered mine but ima talk to a few locals before I install it And get there opinion as well. But I really appreciate your feed back. I live like 30 mins away from the 1320 shop so if anything I could make the trip back and return them. According to one of their sale reps they're selling fast tho

Like I said. I'm still running them. And you'll be completely fine lol. I did find the instal a bit tricky. If your installing their overpipe as well then your more than likely gonna have to unbolt the right rear motor mount and prop your engine up a tad to be able to slide the stock overpipe out and to slide the new one in the subframe clearance for the pipe is a tight fit. You may be able to get it out. Depends on your car. Some people have the problem. Some don't. Also make sure you bolt up the gaskets tight. It's a pain and they like to come loose. You will need a wobble joint to be able to get the bolt under the long runner as well. A regular socket will not fit there lol.

It sounds great. You gotta replace the front pipe though. I have a hks exhaust and its resonated. And the stock front pipe is resonated. So I have double resonated. Which kills the sound ahah. Gonna add a berk front pipe asap so I can really enjoy the sound 😂

My exhaust isn't resonated, it's a nvidia n1 replica by spec d, the headlight manufacturer. I'll probably pick up the real n1 down the road. But I am replacing the factory op with the 1320 one as well. I have the stock front pipe on at the moment. I'm hoping it'll sound great nonetheless. I'm just dying to get it. 💀

Be sure to record yourself pranking TJ if you end up doing it... You should get some "totaled" or "ricer" stickers and put it on his car

Been a little while but got my Tein Flex A's installed today. Definetly a bitch if your learning as you go lmao. The car looks great though. So much better than stock. Solid option. Haven't done much driving yet so no solid opinion yet. Getting an alignment and a rotation tomorow and will follow up with a better review once I can take her down some curvy trails 😜
