Default Monza Cat-Back Exhaust

Hey, I am in need of a new exhaust and ran into this Pace Setter Monza Cat-Back system. I need a replacement rear section and decided to do an entire catback setup for the performance edge. What do you think of this deal?

Monza Cat-Back

If it has potential I will goto the local Summit racing store and look at in person. I know the picture doesn't look like the system eve goes on a Civic, but thats something I'll make final judgement on when I see it in person. Also, they did confirm the price on their website to be correct and in stock...

Let me know.

I got one for my MG Midget years and years ago because the stock one had rusted out.

It was a low quality peice, but for the price, it works. If you plan on keeping it for a long time, I'd suggest going with something else.

Ricey is trying to say it nicely. In other words you get what you pay for. Low price, low quality.

Welds sucked, the piping was thin and the non-stainless. The guy I sold the car to replaced the whole catback a year later because it had rusted out.

haha, nice yellow tip. j/k

what you can do is go get a free flowing muffler and have the shop custom fit it on to your car. that is a cheap way to go. usually the fitting will cost 50-60. and the muffler, sometimes you get for cheap. and if your doing performance, which i assume you are, do a 2 1/4 or 2.5 in. pipping. up to you tho. good luck

What's the difference between Aluminized and Stainless steel tubing?

Also, does anyone know of the different bends, and lengths thereof, of tubing I will need to buy Mandrel bent tubing online for my EG8 Sedan?

Stainless won't rust.

I bought one off ebay there are usually a few on there and they say Tsudo its stainless steel and i love the way it sounds people even ask me what i have done to my car even though its stock it gives it a throughty built engine sound. Only bad thing is its a 4dr d16 and people are always trying to race my slow car
