Bargain Ebay exhaust system 3,5"

[SmokeyTheBandit]

Hi guys,

spotted this on ebay, anybody familliar with this one ?
Sounds like a steal for a stainless steel exhaust.

Sure it isn't the same as many others but bang for buck wize this looks the tits (getting used to british slurs ).

Looks like the same as this one :

If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is. I'm pretty sure toyo sports stuff is cheap tat.

I'm taking the gamble, made the seller an offer for 160 pounds and he agreed
Will post my results/experience when its mounted

Don't realy see what could go wrong with an catback system especially made for this car .....
To be continued !

Don't think it will give you the 720 BHP the advert claims though

Cheap crap seriously!!
Brought a Toyo de cat pipe. Didn't even fit on to the manifold.
Good customer services tho. Said they were going re design it..

Exactly ! If it isn't correct or fitting well i can always put in a dispute through paypal

Try proving it though.

Try proving it though.

Paypal generally favour the purchaser.

Not a fan of the dual canon style exhaust but if it fits and you need one now then hopefully it'll be alright.

I was looking at the toyo sport 182 exhaust, but also asked and was told about someone's de cat not fitting (Id guess it was Tom's reading in here now), be good to see the results, if it doesn't take pics, file a dispute and get a refund...

Indeed just as maty j says, Paypal generally favours the purchaser. So i'm pretty covered if someting goes wrong or isn't as it should be/advertised.
Keep you all posted ! on this

Not a bad price, remember there is no ktec tax on it!

 

[SmokeyTheBandit]

Well got it last week and i have to say the middle pipe fits ok but the rear part is ... :headno:
Doesn't fit for sjit so guys please AVOID !!

I made the choice to alter the entire rear part to my own liking, will post some pics tomorrow way to dark now

3.5"? That's huge. The reason I took mine off.

 

[Silent_Scone]

Too big for an RS. Besides rarely such thing as a bargain

 

[klinec]

Want to ask you how it ends with the exhaust?
How loud is the exhaust?

 

[Fred@BTM]

Yeah i drove to their premises yesterday, handed over £300 and went away with one of their 182 systems

Quality wise its not actually half bad!

but alas they don't fit, the hangars would need modifying, all made in china, there must have been 15 chinese dudes in there boxing stuff up! Parcel force turned up and they filled a 7.5ton truck!

old post i did, but i went and bought their exhaust, no chance would it fit!

 

[klinec]

And what about quality or performance issues?

How much did you need to modify it?

 

[Cookson]

I suppose you could cut the end piece off with those tailpipes and weld a stealth tip on?

 

[Fred@BTM]

it didn't fit, no chance it was going to fit either, brackets were miles out and the quality was crap
