what do you guys think of this?

ok so im going to purchase my whole catback system. well the components and have a muffler shop install it with mandrel bent tubing. you know the basics

anyway i was looking through ebay and found this



ebay link

i know its just another pos ebay item but might as well ask about it. has anyone used it? if it gets pretty good comments im going to buy one. if not then just keeping my original plan of doing everything with magnaflow (cat, resonator, and muffler).

i've been thinking of that as well. there is one on ebay that has the o2 sensor on it also...we dont need that do we?? but yeah, i want to know too!!

i think thats just straight through, a test pipe, ive been thinking of getting one too but i dont want a test pipe just a high flow cat

[bobafett]

i would at least find a cheap one that shows the size. i couldnt tell if that was 2.25, 2.5 or 3 inch test pipe.

i only have a high flow cat on my car, but test pipes are great too, as long as u dont have nazi cops who check for that kind of thing. of course you could probably use the stock heat shielding from your stock cat if you were worried about it.

we live in cali, so we have asshole cops here

we live in cali, so we have asshole cops here

yup thats why im going with all magnaflow. im not sure to get a 2.25inch cat or a 2 inch one i think bigger is better but im not looking for noise i want power with a deep tone

[ghettogeddy]

we might live in cali but the cops out here dont look at that stuff unless they have cause like at a street race or if u look like a ricer

[MessyHonda]

true but i would not like to make alot of noise..trying to keep it sleeperish.i was going to put on a fart can b4 i found this site and my friend put one and that shit looks and sounds nasty...i should take a pic..oh yeah he ahs a toyota corolla

I have one of them glorified test pipes off ebay. The bolt holes didn't have the offset on one side. I had to heat up part of my exhaust with a "cherry torch" & twist it to compensate for it. (that is a old school trick)

[mkymonkey]

so is this a no go or fuck it and go for it lol???

[88Accord-DX]

E-mail the seller & ask them if it has offset bolt holes on one side, about 3/4"-1". If the bolt holes are the same on both sides, then you will issues like I had.

dont get the cheap ebay crap. some stuff works but i would stick to a Magnaflow cat. im going to get one as soon as i get my headers.

id say no. i had one, you better off welding a stright piece of pipe. but i did recently buy a carsound 2.5" hi flow car off a sponser from homemadeturbo. it was only $45 plus shipping. it should be here on monday so ill tell you if its a quiality piece

[mkymonkey]

thanks guys. i guess im going to stick to the original plan of magnaflow! thanks again

I bought a similar Item a while back. This is basicaly a resonator. It's NOT a cat.
