The general rules of thumb regarding the quality and function of aftermarket parts goes something like this: "You get what you pay for," and, "Don't buy the cheap ebay ****."

I put my friend's tsudo cat back on his 97 prelude and it fit perfect , no rattles , sounded pretty sweet . I dont know if this helps but for the money I think its worth it. I personally would go greddy but its also alot more money.

Will it make power? Sure, probably the same as any normal, non exotic exhuast. Mandrel bent stainless steel doesnt really differ too much from brand to brand. Its probably 2.25'', right?

Will it last? I have no idea what quality of muffler tsudo is, and I assume it will get loud as **** once the innards burn out of the muffler.

But, being as its stainless and im sure CNC, the fitment is probably going to be good. And your friend can always go get another fart can when that one craps out, I suppose...

I disagree, the biggest problem with cheap exhaust systems is that they were produced cheap. It's expensive to mandrel bend a pipe cleanly and properly, so with a lot of cheap exhausts, there are quite a few bottlenecks that seriously restrict airflow. Also, CNC porting is expensive, and I don't see that happening either. I do agree that the muffler will probably burn out quickly. Honestly, the only things you'll probably get out of this exhaust are a slight power loss, and a really loud muffler.
