Man, o Man I havent heard of some one from rocktucky for about 50 years now..

E-bay, by the way is just a place to buy and sell things..nothing to make an item good or bad.

Your concern is to who makes makes the products and what it will do for your motor..and for the soumd you desire..who made that N1 system? Put that in and someone might have
the same on their car, then they can tell you more...

I just installed a "generic" SS header and SS BPP cat back off ebay. i got the header,cat back and a SRI for under $200 shipped. header and cat back where TIG welded and an excellent fit. Its loud even with the stock cat. With a test pipe I think it would be unbearable, mine buzzes as it is.

The general consensus I have seen over my forum surfing days has been this: "You get what you pay for."
I have heard of people buying cheapo header and exhaust on eBay and said they had no problems, then others that developed leaks in short periods of time, didn't fit correctly, etc.
Brand name will likely have customer support. Cheapo stuff - you bought it, you're stuck with it.

yeah im still back and fourth between flowmaster, pacesetter, tanabe...ect. and an Ebay N1 catback. i bought a SRI for $23 shipped off of ebay and it is amazing! so i think im just going with the ebay catback, header and highflow cat.
