WOW Sounds like there is a new kid on the block. The price is INSANE !!! Looks pretty solid !

Sound clips please. I LOVE my Joe Z and the sound is awesome, but for the same price you could have this exhaust and a Toms diffuser

I know right, going to totally suck when someone crawls under your car and sees those welds. Embarrassing.

That's why it's a budget exhaust, I used to see these exhausts when I had a Subaru and they never really seemed on par. The adjustable factor drew me in but it's not super high quality.

everyone loves a budget exhaust that sounds and performs just as well

wouldnt be surprised it's made from the overstocked Chinese steel with the recent slowing Chinese real estate economy...steel over there is almost free and you dont need certified steel to be imported to the US for exhausts...structural steel is a different story though. That might explain its cost

Yeah I know you were being sarcastic which is why I was rolling on the floor. When I read your post.

Haha if it functions as well as a top dollar system I only feel bad for those chasing brand names. The salt belt may have issues, but the rest of us won't and will have saved a lot of money. For more mods!

Has anyone added high flow cats to this exhaust? Whats the opinion on sound? I already have the primary cats deleted with the PPE headers but don't want the smell from deleting another set.
Anyone in the U.S. with the dual mode?

He's talking about headers with the xforce. Not headers with the PPE exhaust.

Thank you

Have they released the "new" version that bolts right up without any modification?
