I'll state the obvious.
It's not a high end exhaust.
And the perhaps not so obvious. It has no centre muffler, resonator or cat. So basically it's going to be loud as all fuck and droney as hell.
Avoid.

At that price you can't go wrong :p
If you have the spare money you may as well try it... Never know it could sound amazing

I think best to avoid.
Most of this cheap stuff doesn't quite fit right and you end up spending more to get it adjusted.
And then the note is almost guaranteed to be average at best as these companies don't do any R&D of materials or design.
It might be loud though so if you just want loud for about a year, before all the muffler fill breaks down, then go for it.

mine came with a resonator. im not sure if jims did. theres a sound clip in the exhaust section, but jerome didnt add it to the list... not sure if it was cos it was cheap or he didnt like the sound.

see resonator above. its not actually too loud, depends if you have a dump pipe or not. and the left muffler hangs to the inside about 20mm. hammers fixed that. see page 3 of my profile for upclose pics.

it would probably require a resonator to be fitted.
It looks like standard mufflers would bolt straight up.

There are quite a few I haven't added to the list, I only update it every month or two. I did say that if anyone wanted me to update theirs in particular to send me a PM...

haha, nah was just joking, it probably just got missed rome, all good
Exhaust sounds good. welds are.... average at best, and the left one does sit crooked. and they poke out wayyyyy too much. i wouldnt put it in there either lol

Arguable, could be a copy of another 'reputable' exhaust, bypassing the need for expensive R&D (after all, someone else has already done it for you). But they usually do come with cheap back box mufflers, however at that price I think it's worth trying out. Even with labour involved to get it to sit right...

I guess anyone can bend a piece of pipe, my thoughts were more about tip lengths, sitting straight and the quality of the muffler fill and how long it will last.
I know when I went looking at mufflers there were a lot of no name brands, which I'm sure sell well, but I wanted something that lasted and had data on noise level, dyno sheets on performance increases etc. I didn't see too much of this from the cheaper chinese copies.
