 I bought my cat-back off of ebay, but it was from a well known manufacturer of exhausts. You might want to go with an exhaust that is well known, or you could face fitting issues or poor quality. Do NOT go with whats the cheapest on your car. You get what you pay for. Also, unless you are turbo/SC, dont use 3" exhaust, you need more backpressure.


The SEARCH feature on the site works, I promise. USE IT!!!

 I don't know, I can't really say I'd trust a cat back for under 100 dollars. That just seems way, way too cheap for it to be a good quality exhaust.

 It definately wont be of good quality. I see a scam going on here.

 Yeah I deffinitly wouldn't go with that. not only is the quality not going to be great but one of the big things to watch out for on ebay is a low buying price with high shipping cost. Because say he sends you that exhaust and it doesnt fit the car or something like that, he is making money off the shipping because that is non refundable. I'd just watch out with that posting. High scam possibilities

 I've got the Agency Power cat back, I'm pretty sure Tseudo makes a cat back as well.

One of the biggest issues I've seen with bargain exhaust is the quality of welds are generic and tend to rust.

The quality of steel overall is lower and will corrode much faster if not cleaned often.

 What are your plans for after the exhaust; what do you need it for now? To make noise??? Don't waist your money on crap, and then have to change it a little down the road... Your profile says that you are planning maybe turbo??? I wouldn't waist my money on that crap if you are going forced induction... save you money and get something good (GReddy/HKS).
