Default obx full exhaust

I'm thinking about buying the full obx exhaust for my 02 automatic coupe. Has anyone else done a full exhaust through them? If so, how did they work out? 1050 for a full exhaust is almost unbelievable.. Thanks in advance for any insight.

There are mixed opinions on here about it. Some people who have never even seen the system up close will tell you cheap chinese garbage and leave it at that. Others that have the system have reported that it bolted right on with no issues. Then there are others that say that they bought it and never could get everything to line up correctly. Seems like they are hit or miss. My own personal experience with OBX makes me never want to buy their stuff again. I bought a LSD for my turbo eclipse. It was 1/2 the price of the Quaife they copied. They also didnt machine splines into it to fit the halfshafts. It took me 3 months of emailing back and forth to get my money back.

from what ive read the new stuff is garbage, wait for XSpower to stock up, ive heard nothing but good news from xspowers setup. Im on the PM waiting list for a set too. Search around on here for (superman09?) he deals with XSpower stuff.

Im not a fan of the polished like stainless bc it looks cheap IMO but for the price u cant go wrong. I think XSpower's setup is 725-775 IIRC.
