When I get my car back, hopefully this weekend I guess I could post a vid cycling thru the gears also if I find one of my jacks I'll take a pic of the resonator so everyone knows how to install it. As for power gains, I wouldn't expect to get more than 5 whp.

Could you also post a pic of the tip taken from eye-level, i wanna see how big it looks. cant really tell from the other pics.

 

[Jordysoso]

Yup I can do that. You want it just standing looking at it or eye to tip level

 

[Jackie chan]

Standing and looking down at it would be awesome, thanks

Just got mine in the mail and installed it today. Holy s***, it looks and sounds great. Good quality welds, nice mandrel bends, decent gaskets/flanges, AWESOME sound. Not too loud, but definitely deep and throaty. Sounds real nice at WOT around 3500rpm. Let's be honest, if I had the money, I'd have gone with a GReddy Evo. But I don't have the money, and I couldn't be happier with this no-name catback for $125.99 shipped.

Question is, does it drone @ highway speeds?

 

[Brian_K]

yes. but no where near as bad as all the other exhausts for the protege5 (excluding the racingbeat)

Does anyone have any other pics or vids? especially one after its been on for a while. I'd like to hear what it sounds like after the break in period, if any different at all. Thanks

No vids but I have had a "Tom Motorsports" ebay mandrel bent stainless catback on my car for over 5 yrs now. I have OBX header, 2.25" flex fitted midpipe with hi flo magnaflow cat. I swapped out the blue tipped muffler that came with catback and went with a Magnaflow 5x8 oval muffler with the rolled angled tip. The ebay resonator and piping have held up great with no issues at all. There is nothing annoying dronewise at all. I can drive all day at 3300rpm doing 75mph with no headaches or extra loud music to make it tolerable. You can hear it but it sounds so good I don't even turn on music for the 30 mile ride to work most of the time. I'm thinking the exhausts being discussed here are much the same as what I initially purchased so they should last good long time. NOTE - I am not in the rust belt and my car is garaged at home and work so that may make a difference in the long run.

[Jordysoso]

Larry, it drones however I will turn my stock radio to 12-18 and I can't hear it at all
