Its a pipe dude. My SR pipe is ugly as **** but works great. Couple of guys have the "cheap" OBX pipe without complaints.

But if I were to do it all over i would jump on that TurboXS deal.

how does it look ugly? its a ******* pipe. what do you want? sharks with fricken lasers on their head?

my midpipe is single res. and its awesome.

the only down side (imo) to this pipe is that its 2.5". but it will help keep the noise down too.

Its not that its ugly, but it just looks crap when i compare it to how sexy my hks hi power cat back looked, the hks just looks nice, it really feels nice, when i look at that it just looks like its poorly made.

lol - well....if it looks like ****.....it might just be ****.

why would you title a thread like this and then ask for an opinion? it sounds like you've already made up your mind about it but hoping we're gonna disagree with you - or hoping that we actually say it's fine so you can justify your inner desires for purchasing the shitty lookin pipe....oops...i think i just gave an opinion on it...lol


YOU SHOULD BUY IT!......i think

I'd say - get it - but make sure you don't pay more then $125... Doesn't look bad, plus how often you going to see it?

buy it *****. it's $175. if it works out well then give it a positive review and we will all praise you for being a pioneer, if it sucks like you think it does then you only lost out on $175 and just keep it to your self so we wont tell you over and over that we told you so...

Looks like a midpipe to me. Kinda hard to tell how something works just by looks.
