Anyone tried the ebay Tsudo exhaust?
 
Ebay has Tsudo (I figure that's Chinese for "crap") 2.5" stainless catback exhausts for about $220 shipped. Anyone tried these? How does it sound? Fit OK? Fallen apart yet? Or is it a good buy?

jayc72 06-07-2007 04:21 PM

Linkage? I'm lazy.

jayc72 06-07-2007 04:23 PM

Found it. meh. The 4" tip on the 2.25" looks retarded. The N1 style probably won't fit worth shit unless you are into that JDM fanboy stuff.

Other than that, top notch!

cueball1 06-07-2007 05:29 PM

OK I'm an idiot. The obnoxious ricer tip I figured I could remove is part of the muffler system. The 2.5" mandrel stainless might be OK or it might be stainless tinfoil. I'm cheap and though I might be able to de-rice it. Looks like enthuza is likely to get my business.

Wise choice. I installed an Enthuza turbo system almost a year ago, and it still looks and sounds like new. Great stuff.

Picks above are from Kuane on this board. He's running a Greddy kit. I'm actually going to buy it from him for cheaper then what he bought it for ($180 delivered) since he found a St. May on ebay.

Build quality is actually very good, 2.5inch. Sound-wise, it's QUIET. I mean, QUIET. Which is what i want.

drftem 06-07-2007 06:59 PM

im running an actual tsudo cf muffler excellent quality and sound.

Jefe 06-07-2007 10:40 PM

Do you have to cut the rear skirt for that 4" to fit?

I have an ebay OBX catback and the 4" tip actually fits the hole in the bumper cover perfectly.

Nope.

Quiet is good. I'm suprised I'm actually liking the pictures. I hate the sound and look of all the Honda Fart Can exhausts. I'm actually back on the fence again.

Ex Honda Man. That's the exact system I'm talking about. Good pic's. You've seen it in action, heard it, seen the fit and quality and you like it! For a stainless 2.5" the price is definetly right. Good to hear the quality is pretty good and they aren't too loud.

Damn. I thought I was going to narrow my shopping down to the enthuza. The extra couple hundred bucks saved would go a long way towards the water/ oil lines and intercooler piping I need. :vash:

You sure that's 2 1/2?

27akademiks 06-09-2007 05:31 PM

Yeah Tam, I remember Kuane telling me that the midpipe was 2.25" and the axle back was the only 2.5" part?

SamS 06-10-2007 10:58 AM

I thought it was 60mm

240_to_miata 12-14-2007 05:27 PM

i know this thread is old.. but did any1 ever find out if this exhaust is 2.5" all the way?

supersuk 12-14-2007 05:40 PM

Nope, I have one and the midpipe is 2.25" the axle back is 2.5". I love it only because its so quiet decent upgrade from the stock exhaust if you ask me. Made my turbo spool a little sooner. Although, it doesn't fit the best. I took it to an exhaust shop to make it fit nice.

tronik 12-14-2007 06:03 PM

that sucks, if it was 2.5 all the way through that would be a good deal. if you wanted a 2.5 midpipe and had to source one that would put it into enthuza money range

240_to_miata 12-14-2007 06:22 PM

looks like enthuza 2.75 budget turbo racer is what ill be going with

UrbanSoot 12-14-2007 06:53 PM

yeah, that thing is 2.25". i have one along with ebay headers, just havent installed it yet.

Braineack 12-14-2007 09:53 PM

How does that system sound? Do you have a resonator?

I'm telling you this from experience.. You're going to hate your life when you install that god damn header..

11 months on the car and it still looks good, no cracks yet. Not bad for $90.00 shipped though. We noticed a HUGE difference over stock exhaust manifold and cat.

Do yourself a favor if you've got an 1.8.. Delete the EGR and don't even try to install the tube on the header. Had to bend the shit out of the header tube to get it even remotely close to the crossover tube.

Braineack 12-15-2007 12:19 PM

borla duals + stock header = yum great sound.

borla duals + JR header = OMG turbo the car now cause it sounds like I killed a cat.
