Default Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr...........

I bought that true dual system off ebay and it sux **** sorry for my language. It looks like a 2yr old put the welds together. It took them over 2weeks to send them to me and to top it all of nothing is even close to fitting. I mean nothing def spend the extra $$ and get it from TSP or have it custom made.

Sorry to hear the bad news. Take it as a learning experience and move on. Some people on Ebay are a-holes.

I bid on a set of those for 6 days holding off my car for them and then when i won them and paid the ******* sent me a email saying they are out of stock!!!
what !!
how can you be out of stock on someting you build and had six days to build them??? and to top that of he even says on ebay that he will ship 1 week after paid ( so i'm guess you pay then he builds them right)
I guess the bid didn't get as high as he hope! total *******

This is the second thread I've seen about how shitty this system was. You're only saving like $50 bucks from the *proven* TSP system!

+1 for SEARCH!

You should post some pics of his workmanship, along with his eBay name, so we'll all know to steer clear of him.

damn i would have if i didnt wrap the box back up with tape. Its the comapany on ebay called BNR. If you go to ebay motors and type in LS1 true duals all of his exaust sytems will come up. The picture looks real good but the system you recieve looks like a 2yr old welded it. AND yes thoes are the headers

Wow, I just read some of the seller's feedback and it seems that you aren't the only one with this problem. There are about 8 negative feedback remarks in the first 4 pages all complaining about the welds and poor fitment.

stillremains, I've seen his stuff before, and I actually thought of investing in a set and hacking it up to go over the axle. What he shows on the auction looks decent... I doubt it's leak. But then when people open the box up is when it hits home how crappy his work is.

I guess what I'd like to see is what an actual customer got from him... I'm not the best welder in the family, but I do take pride in what I weld up. And from what it sounds like, I could do better than this dude in my sleep.

Yes this setup blows man. I almost got suckered into it also. Luckily I posted up on here about if before I bought it and everyone chimed in and told me the welds sucked and nothing fits. Good luck to ya on the return thoug.
