As if you're gonna buy an exhaust off ebay mate. $330 plus postage, no thanks.

Get one cheaper including fitting at a local exhaust place... A place that knows what they're talking about not just some backyard ebay seller.

Hey

Yeah your exactly right mate, you would also get a tip on the exaust for $300 at most places, i payed $280 for one on my VY with chrome tip...

eeeek, it does'nt even have a brand either.

expect to pay around $250-$380 for a good branded cat back system, exhaust tip and installation at any local exhaust shop.

Actually yes just about any exhaust shop that sells X Force will do a system for the same price as that one on ebay... Fitted. Its not a custom exhaust if its a X force system, its just a pre-fab exhaust.

yes a shop that sells X force will do it for that price but you have to find a shop that is a X force distributor
no joke I no its pre fab but thats why they are cheaper then a shop that makes one from scratch
just because they are pre fab doesnt mean they arent good
and the original poster lives in a country town so his local shop wound have X force systems

just want to know if any one on here has or has used on of these exhausts?
looking to put it on v8 vr auto with mods; air filter, extractors,

want to know quality? did it drown at 100klms?
cheers in advance.....

If you are putting it on a V6, don't bother. Look for a 2 1/2" instead. If it's for a V8, go for it. It seems that it is more economical for you to get this rather than drive 250kms and get one that would be very similar anyway.

I see it has a 2 year warranty, that is what all mild steel systems have as well, so you are covered for 2 years against faulty materials or workmanship. Just make sure you fit it correctly and keep it up as high as possible.
