A few people on here had them and were speaking highly of them for a while, but soon after, most of them got rid of them and said they weren't good anymore. One guy, who happened to be a pro mechanic, had bought one to put on his car, but even after going to an exhaust specialist, couldn't get it to fit on. Most of them have leaks in the flanges, and one person said they were getting a wierd vibration/noise under load. Also most of them have reported finding fiberglass all over the boot after running them for a while. I personally would steer clear. If you want a cheap cat-back, check out the ireland engineering cat-back. I believe it is $360.00 before shipping. A guy i drive with a lot has one on his car, and it sounds really great. The only problem is the tips aren't the nicest, but you could always weld in some new ones if you really wanted to.

 

i think i will go with the megan catback,its a little more expensive than theses but i might save a lot of trouble!i dont want any leaks or anything like that!

 

You also might want to take a look at the Invidia. For me it got down to the Ireland mentioned above and the Invidia. I decided on the Invidia after hearing the tone and seeing the quality - and no issues with the tips. After an extensive hunt I recently found mine for $595 shipped.

 

Jut keep in mind, most of the time, you get what you pay for. I'd be cautious about weld quality and leaks.

 

that's why i will not buy it,i tought it would be like that too(leaky and cheap)
