Ebay Exhaust

[micha118833]

So it's time for a downpipe and exhaust, already have a hollow cat. I'm addidcted to ebay and i know from experience that a lot of things on there are shit but I usually know what to look for. However when it comes to which down pipe and exhaust are better i don't have a clue. if they are all stainless steaal, is the cheap like $150 cheap not good? I am looking to go with a 3" setup. I know that my cat is not 3"

You'll be fine with an ebay exhaust.

So something like this would be fine?

any way you could mod this to fit a awd dsm?

 

[Jonny J]

Idk.. cant really beat that price!!!

 

[micha118833]

yeah it is cheap . you would need a pipe bender or buy then bends you need and weld them. sounds so easy don't it? I'm just glad this kit will fit mine so I don't have to do any of them. but I wanted to make sure it's good enough before i order it

 

[Jonny J]

True true. i might just man up and buy awd exhaust. It doesnt come with a downpipe though... and costs more

That's easier said then done. I found a donar car for 1500 but I'm just not up to that much of a job, I feel it would take too much cursing and beer from me to complete.

If you go ebay for an exhaust make sure all the welding points are good and upgrade the exhaust gaskets if necessary.

ok so here is what i have ran into with my ebay exhaust. first i had an apex i n1 full exhaust from the turbo back, then one day driving home a steel plate in the road decided to hit my exhaust and rip/straighten it out. so after that happened i did not want to spend the money on another apex, and i bought an ebay exhaust, cat back, bc i was able to still use some of the old apex and just cut and reweld. i bought one that was not the cheapest but not the most expensive. i have had it for 2 years with no rust and sounds great. also it is a 3 inch. i think i paid about 180ish.

 

[micha118833]

well currently I'm in the middle of a 6 bolt swap cause I have a lot of low end noise ( think it's a rod). I still have that exhaust saved in my cart, now I'm clutch shopping

 

[ed1380]

Pull the oil pan and check the bearings first.

 

[micha118833]

yeah that could be too, but I don't really care I wanted a 6 bolt and what a better excuse? I've already purchased the engine and several components and I can't wait to get it all done!

I had an Ebay "Speed Daddy" catback on my car when it was FWD, it was on for a couple years with zero issues, fitment was excellent, bolted up to a Megan 3" dp.

 

[ed1380]

Nice. let me know if you need a hand

 

[micha118833]

Thanx ed, are you in ATL or OTP?

I've been running a 3" ebay downpipe and 3" cat-back for a couple years now with no issues. Fitment was good, sounds great and was cheap. I got the cat-back from CXRacing and the downpipe from LingLong or some other Chinese dealer. Shit, up until I took the car down for more power I ran a CXRacing EVOIII for 10K+ miles at 22-24 psi without a single issue.

 

[micha118833]

Hell yeah Ed, your close, 5150 thanks I'm definitely doing it, just gotta get this clutch shopping out of the way

 

[aajj1987]

I have a exhaust shop that does all my exhaust on my cars for 250 he made me a 3inch down pipe with a muffler and 3inch all the way back. sure it was crush bend but I think the mandrel bending didn't make a difference till about 400 and some horsepower

 

[micha118833]

my goal for the car is between 400-450hp, putting my faith in ARP to hold it all together

It's a little more than you were looking to spend, but so for (elsewhere on the net) I haven't seen anyone who was disappointed by this exhaust.

i can say from experience my old civic yess civic -__- i got an ebay exhaust for that it was great buuuuut. after about 7 months somehow the muffler tip literally blew out haha. didnt affect anything though. and that was a civic. so yes your good just make sure your welds stay good mine went through a western NY winter and the welds had some rust
