Default eBay Exhaust

Has anyone ordered this?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Parts...1%7C240%3A1318

Obviously not the best quality in the world, however for $150 bucks, you really can't beat a full catback.

Just wondered if anyone had experience with the eBay kit.

THanks.

ebay = cheap finds or rear ___ parts thats all. sometimes you will get lucky & find a killer deal on some name brand parts but most likely that exhaust will be crap sorry save up some more cash get get a HKS cat back ;)

That doesn't sound bad at all! How is the quality of the whole setup?

I actually like the way it sounds. Not bad.

i haven't heard an exhaust on the new xb yet, but the sound is weird to me when you first the throttle. you also get what you pay for in quality and would rather spend my money on a known product

A) you get what you pay for... time honored testing by millions...

B) coming off the revs it sounds a bit strange

C) sounds alright actually but you have to ask yourself do you have $150 laying around that could potentially just go to the trash within 6 months? or go to a site like TRDsparks.com and pay slightly less than dealer price for the real deal + warranty :-)

$150 for full exhaust (with gains) or $369 for an axel back that will change the sound of your exhaust and nothing else.

Ill take $150. Im ordering it now, Ill let you guys know how the quality and do a write up on it when I get it.
