All I will say is that you get what you pay for.

I've seen worse. The price isn't that bad either. But I'd rather support a sponsor ---> if I have a choice.

"Ends are expanded so they slip onto ALL LS1 long tube headers with 3in collectors."

Right....

I would also chose to go with one of our sponsors over the Ebay duals. Plus, I am not familiar with many '02 M6's that dyno 276hp and have a stock torque curve that looks like that.

I wouldnt strongly suggest against it. I purchased their 3" dynomax system and I was greatly disappointed. At the collectors, I can't get the pipes to stop leaking. Tried uclamps, bandclamps, nothing seems to work. Worst part was, I have seen popcorn that looked better then this guys welding. The X-pipe he pictured was the only good weld, everything else was horrible. I had to re-weld the entire thing, and best part is right when I hit each part with heat, it fell apart!

x2, for $100 more you can get a product many have had. plus you can get the sweet thunders instead of the bullets with tsp's. but then again there are about 100 threads arguing about which sounds best

$220 winning bid - wow.. That's less than my cost on parts alone... Looks like the builder is still learning to weld too.

Not a bad deal though as long as it fits and holds up. They won't last long at those prices though.
