    the exhaust on my wagon is a lukey(walker) 2.5 cat back, i certainly wouldnt complain about it, good quality, great sound, no drone, (12months old) no signs of rusting. i cant rate them high enough.

    Had a Lukey 2.5 cat back on the VZ before i sold it, no complaints

    Sounded alright after it warmed up.

    Been sitting in the shed no sign of corrosion yet.

    Lukey were bought by Walker quite a few years ago and they withdrew the brand name from the market. Then, because of public demand, Walker reintroduced the Lukey branding into their performance products, replacing the name Dynomax, which is the name used in the US. The Dynomax name didn't really take hold that well here, thus the reintroduction of Lukey.

    Lukey itself is no longer in production, just rebranded Walker products, but having said that, the product isn't actually that bad.

    I do Manta though, I believe they are a better than Lukey in both fit and sound. $230 shipped for one without a resonator or $270 with. I would recommend the resonator being a wagon, to stop the drone.
