i was browsing the ebay for some intermediate pipe for my eg (from cat back before axle..i dont need the rear end muffler)..but i found out that ebay acutally has a good deal with the full cat back exhaust include the rear end muffler shipped for like under $200.. i dont care the rear end muffler cause i have a better one..all i need is the intermediate pipe.. hows the quality on that pipe..they are T304 stainless steel with 2.5" all the way..
so anyone knows the quality on this cheap exhaust? thanks

some things like pipe cant be so developed that you get a major diffrence in hp between brands the main thing when it comes to exhaust is limit your bends and where there are bends make sure there clean. I just went and got mine bent and put on at a mufler shop and it was like 150 from the headers back. the only part is trying to find a shop to leave out the cat.

I got a 3" stainless catback from ebay and it has a "GReddy EVO" can on it. You can't even tell it's off brand. It looks just like the GReddy and sounds just as good also. I'm actually going to take it off my car and give it to my g/f for her turbo'd B16 '00 coupe and I'm going to buy me a 3" stainless catback with an "Apex'i N1" can on it. I have done it and I will do it again! It was cheap and a great buy!

If the pictures are high res and it looks good. And they promise it's stainless then go for it.

Just use the piping you need. Pipe is pipe.

A 3 inch exhaust is complete overkill for a stock or near stock SOHC/DOHC motor

I guess you should buy an ebay turbo manifold too then?

Negative.

There's a big difference between something that gets 600 degress and something that gets 1200-1400 degrees.

headers you CAN cheap out on and if it breaks you're okay. You don't want your turbo manifold cracking.

i got my cat back that i had on my eg coupe from ebay for under 200 dollars, it was no brand no stamp or anything like tht and i put it on and everyting an it looked nice, it was stainless but the hangers broke off, not too big of a deal but if i could do it again i would probably get something used

Exactly. My d16y8 is fully built with a 60 trim Turbonetics snail.

3" is perfect for my car!
