The parts rust terribly fast.

Performance wise they are not much if any better than stock.

The exhaust sounds horrible.

Or just get a muffler shop to fab something up for you and just supply them with a decent muffler.

So far, mine hasn't rusted. Mostly because I drilled some tiny drain holes in each of the pipes. They always rust from the inside out cause there's no drain. I hated the sound at first, but now it's grown on me. It's different from all the others

They rust, and rust fast, and fit like crap. Stay away. get a custom built exhaust for the same price.

They're 2 pipes and a muffler. Can't really be worse then stock. I haven't really heard anything else that sounds like it. The idle to 3000 sounds pretty normal, and right around 3500 it gets really raspy, then about 4500 is sounds normal again. My pipes went together fine, although the gasket for the backside of the cat was wrong (needs to be widened with an x-acto knife). As for price, I couldn't find a local shop that would make a custom exhaust for less then $300 (kit was $220)
