NO, not a bad place.
You just need the one with real brand name...
any copy or knockoff exhaust is at your own risk

Are you talking about an "Ebay Catback" or specific ORIGINAL BRAND that is only being through the use of ebay?

I bought a skunk2 exhaust off ebay. Cant beat the prices sometimes, just make sure you are buying from a good seller.

I'm talking about something like this. Is this crap, or do you just get what you pay for?

I have never had that exhaust, so I can't say from personal experience. BUT, I'm almost 100% sure that that Exhaust WILL SOUNDS HORRIBLE. It is a knock off to the Apexi N1, which itself sounds pretty nasty. So I'magine what a knock-off will sound like... As for performance, I cannot say.

dont get a cheapo muffler like the "FIREBALLZ" or anythink like that for 12.99 buy it now. invest in a good exhaust for you liking. some mufflers are super loud. i like quiet stock looking ones myself. im thinking of a 05 rsx muffler now.

What would be a good exhaust to look into? I want somthing that will have a deeper tone, But within a lower price range. Under $400 if possible...
