Default N* Power Dump Pipe

Hey guys, thinking of changing my dump pipe and found this on ebay. The price looks pretty sweet because I asked RMS n their dump pipes are $350 but I dont know about the quality of it. I m a complete noob to the turbo scene. Do you guys mind giving me comments or past experience from this dump pipe?

Cheers

I was silly enough to buy one of N* Powers (Naux's) exhausts for my old 07.

He guaranteed it to be a direct fit and when it went to go on it didnt line up at all and was super shit thin so it couldn't be bent to fit.

Contacted the seller (Naux) and he didnt give to shit and said bad luck he cant guarantee all his stuff will fit and all he knows was his first sample was a direct fit, what a wanker!!!!

Had to spend $120 to get it to be chopped and a length put in as it was too short and heated up with an oxy and bent so the bends would be correct, couldn't use the pipe bender as the metal was so thin it would just bend and split.

Thats what happens when you buy cheap shit from ebay so lesson learnt for me.

Get the one sourced through Norm Butler from RMS. The dump is the foundation and most critical part of the exhaust system.

Better built, Butler built!!

Go direct to Norm as it will be cheaper, RMS and Norms workshop are less than 50m apart so why pay extra.
