Default Exhausts: M2 vs. Topspeed

Hi guys, looking for a budget exhaust and found M2 & Topspeed, they look the same to me, a vendor on here sells M2 and Ebay sells topspeed. Are they the same exhaust with different names?

I've seen them as different names. I bought one off ebay, install was easy and fit was a 8/10 sounds is a 10/10 can't be beat for 350 shipped

^^exactly sounds great but welds are weak and fitment is poor took some work to make it line up in the bumper right.

The main reason i ask is because the topspeed exhaust is sold for around $420 and M2 $280.

i have the M2, and my few complaints are that it does drone a little bit, but that has lessened since the install. Also, the tips are sunk in about 1"-11/2" from the bumper lip, though this could possibly be due to the body kit. But, for the price, i think it's well worth it.
