Ebay Exhaust!
Morning all
Has anyone tried this exhaust from ebay, seems like a good price but unsure what it sounds like...

Ebay Exhaust!
I bought one of these and fitted at home myself last month. It came in a box labelled Direnza (there is some more feedback if you Google direnza exhausts). Came well packaged and with all fixings and gaskets needed even if you need to drill out the downpipe studs...this was a week long drama involving several cobalt drill bits
The exhaust itself looks to be really well made, good quality welds. Needed a bit of fettling underneath to get it in correct position and used some instant gasket/silicone sealant on the joints as well as the supplied gaskets but eventually got it sitting correctly with joints all sealed.
I'm quite pleased with the sound, it not overly loud and doesn't drone at motorway speeds. After a few hundred miles the sound is developing nicely, I would describe as growling with some pops and burbles on overrun.

I've been following this for weeks. I don't even think I can get this sent over to Aus but just the anticipation and build up surrounding hearing a lucrative video of this exhaust!
Any pics of the tips fitted?
