Default Ebay Catbacks

Does anyone have any experience with this particular item?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...33630



$238.99 Shipped
It's 2.5 SS pipe and the quality looks pretty good. I don't want it to be super loud so i'm happy it comes with a silencer.

If you got a catback from ebay could you show me which one and tell me what you think of it?

-Thanks

that looks like a 14" resonator, so it wouldnt be uber loud...silencers make the car sound like ****, and eliminate w/e minimal gains the exhaust gives you.....

on ebay exhausts like that, the biggest problems are the use of shitty mufflers....alot of times they only use steel wool do absorb sound in the muffler, and that will eventually burn away, making the car loud as hell

I have that exhaust. It's the Tsudo cat-back. Not horrible but not that good either. It only sounds good with the silencer out, but then it's too loud, at least for cops around here. If you have any serious plans for your car you should get something a little better.

If you don't have money flowing out of your pockets... what sense does it make to spend what little you have on a shitty exhaust??? Save your money and get something nice OR just go get custom 2.5" mandrel bent pipe all the way back to whatever kind of can you want to run. Cost you round $300

It will sound a lot different on an accord than a hatch too. Catbacks dont really decrease air flow restrictions that much. Id get rid of the cat, and 2.25" pipe it out to an ebay muffler.

Tsudo really isn't a bad catback for the money. My buddy got it & put it on his Civic. He likes it. He does say its really loud w/out the silencer. But other than that, it bolted right on w/out a problem

I would rather spend a little more than have a exhaust that sounds bad, but if you have no patience to save up a little bit, then sure grab yourself a tsudo cat back
