Default ebay exhaust

Im in the process of buying a lot of things for my car and im gonna be low on money but i really want to get a catback. Im looking at some ebay cat backs and im sure theyre not going to be great but it will have to work for now. I know you prolly want to say save your money for a really good one but i want to get one now and it will have to work for a while till i get some more cash. So which one do you think is better or doesnt it really matter?

I plan on lowering the car, getting an intake, y8 tb and intake mani, and a megan header. Should i just stick with the stock 1 3/4" exhuast and run the header to that?

You do realize those are both the same exact catbacks, right?

They're both made by Tsudo...

I would recommend you DON'T buy either of those. If you want it to fit well, and sound good for cheap you need to throw at least a little bit more money in. Sometimes taking deals isn't the best idea. Throw in more money and you'll be happy with what you get.

I think the one seller, "nissangtrpower", that's selling one of those Tsudos you posted also sells Megan Racing Catbacks... A few people on here have them, you can find them on reputable sites for the same price as the ones on ebay and they're great exhausts. They cost more than the ones you're looking at but you won't be dissapointed in the end...

Unless you're a ricer... You're not a ricer, are you?! Just kidding.

Simple theory to grasp. You get what you pay for. Exhuasts are no exception. You wanna good fit? You wanna good sound? You wanna good performance gain? Don't be cheap. We aren't telling you to go out and buy a full greddy Catback for 800 bucks. (i don't know how much they are i just spat out a number) I've heard good things about Megan racing though.

or if you wana go custom (have your own custom sound, and have something on your Civic nobody else has ), get a DC or Megan 4-2-1 header, randoms high-flow cat, then run 2.25" piping from the cat back to a Magnaflow resonator, then back to a Volt, GReddy, Magnaflow or twin-loop muffler. Thatd be prime. Might be a little more expensive, but it'll be worth (still prolly cheaper than a GReddy catback though)
