Default Ebay true dual exhaust

Has anyone ever heard or bought these true duals? http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewi...d=87823366342? Just wondering what you guys thought or if anyone ever put them on. They seem pretty nice plus they are stainless steel. What do you guys think?

If your on a budget I dont see why not. Price is definitely good compared to 800-1200 for duals. Hangars are really cheap. Any exhaust shop can fab em up for you for no additional cost. I say its a go. =]

I can tell ya they will be running very low might not have much clearance with that. I just got kooks custom true duals.. check out the positioning of mine. Fits right under the car.

Not worth it. An x pipe kit is like $100. That doesnt even have mufflers on it. Its pretty much a kit with a few extra pieces.

No I did not order any headers yet but I was thinking about which direction i wanted to go. I saw lt headers by a place called speed daddy for I believe around $230 but of course like all off brand headers I have heard of fitment issues. I am on a budget and wanted stainless steel headers. I know tsp has stainless headers for $400 so I dunno what direction to go in yet and I didn't wanna get pacesetters. That's why I ordered the eBay true duals because for one they were cheap and two because they were stainless. I also liked them because they looked just like the tsp true duals so hopefully there won't be any issues. Guess I'll find out.

i would do TSP, they have a good system. hopefully they are coted, if you don't get stainless headers then you will want coating for longer protection. I'm glad I went stainless for everything. If you want my ebay headers i will show you pictures. They just need 1 bolt I broke one of the Kooks bolts putting them on (that was a nightmare) and I used one of the bolts from the ebay set. Look into what you want and let me know if you want them. I have no use for these puppy's they are just decorations in my living room right now. Good luck choosing.

I think what we need to see here is how well clearance is. I would be interested in buying this piece. I wanna know if the car is lowered, any vibrating issues, etc. All that info should be sent to the guy in order to confirm whether its a good piece or not.
just saying as well. =]

That's exactly what I've been wanting TSP to pump out for over a year now; Just the kit, and let me pick my own mufflers. Looks identical as well, other than them having the driver and passenger legs of the pipe on the wrong sides in the pictures....

Your exhaust shop can weld you 2 hangers on the turn downs for next to nothing, so no big deal there. Looks nice. Throw a pair of Magnaflow or Borla bullets on there anmd you've got yourself a stainless dual system.

Well the other big reason I wanted to buy these was because I really wanted the sweet thunder mufflers and tsp apparently no longer offers them. My current setup right now is all stock and I don't plan on lowering it so we'll just have to wait and see if there are any fitment issues. I'll let you guys know what I think when I receive them and put them on along with some pics so you can decide.

Hey guys I will upload some pictures tonight, i'm running the eibach pro kit. My car is still on stands but I should finish the exhaust tonight. It looks like I will have enough ground clearance still I don't want to go back to stock height.
