Nope. I have the ebay kit all the way and sounds super awesome. Can't vouch for how long it will last b/c it's been a week, but it sounds great. Deep tone, not raspy, and sounds great in the cabin.

Those kits really do sound nice. If you don't believe me go ahead and get a nice axle back to put with it, but there is really no need for it, until the other muffler burns out.

its all about build quality... sound depends on resonators and muffler shapes and so forth... ebay can have a nice sounding exhaust kit... only question is how long it last.. you can even find reputable exaust kits cheaper tha retail... its all a matter of finding a good deal or not... sometimes you really do get what you pay for

Yea, I'm worried about how long it will last, but it seems a lot like the Tsudo one which a lot of people use. I paid 150 and got a pretty decent kit IMO. If it lasts a couple years I'm cool with that.

It's the SR*S one that some other sellers are selling too. Only issues I had was it came too close to a heat shield in one part so I took a chunk of that out. I'm not sure if they really gave me the hatch middle section or not, but it works.
