I actually took a stab at it! I mean its pretty good, the tips turned gold which is normal, I feel a little pull on it in the mid range, but nothing too drastic! I also have the Aem intake on it, so the two combined work well together, but you basically get what you paid for... I actaully ordered the new MS Dual Can Sport Exhaust look for a post by scapegoat he actually bought it too...

OBX is a copy cat company I'd say you have a 50/50 chance of this product getting the gains the original did. If not it's only $299 probably has descent sound and probably looks nice.

How's the sound of the OBX?? Deep?? I prefer a deeper sound and am looking for a catback, but outlandishly expensive?? Any opinions?

hmmm.... I have the magnaflow system now after a disaster with a flowmaster set up, it sounded good with the flowmaster.... just kinda went to crap after a week, and then it was loud, real loud and obnoxious so I had to look for alternative, if I had known about this one I could have saved me the 800+ bucks I paid for the magnaflow RX-8 system which does not sound good.

Usually, you get what you pay for.


BTW, what's a 13B-WSP?

299 wouldn't really be a bad option, since it's pretty much a common knowlege that an exhaust upgrade offers no hp gain there really isn't a way to say if this exhaust or that exhaust is worth it or not. It's more about sound and looks (tips).
