i wouldnt buy it. You buy cheap, you get cheap

I have the same one but not from ebay. I bought it off a MR2 vendor.
So far so good. A little louder than I like. And the mufflers are about 4" from the ground. My car is lowered. On speed bumps, I have to be very careful.

i bought http://koracing.net/viewproduct.php?folder=3&product=82 due to delays on a group buy for the Berk exhaust. its lightwieght, but on the loud side.

If you want an exhaust that is just a bit louder than stock, I'd go with the Berk dual tip exhaust. I have one on my MR2 and I love it.

I was checking them out last week. Sweet looking, all SS. and 3" dia. plumbing.
Was curious about the noise levels though. I bought a TRD exhaust some years ago and find it to be just right as far as sound levels are concerned. Nice and deep, yet quiet enough between normal shifting RPM's.
Would you describe the Berk much like this?
The sound of all these after market exhausts kid's put on their civics is horrible! It's the one thing that holds me back from an exhaust purchase. Youtube can't truly replocate all characteristics of you being in the drivers seat. My fear is spend $700 and have to sell it for 300 a week later.
Thank you!

"Nice and deep" is a fair description of it's sound. It sounds nothing like those honduh POS. I've only had this exhaust for a year now but I have no complaints. I'm sure you will love it.

They do look sweet and well made. Currently my goal is 3" plumbing from the throttle body to the exhaust tips. Less I hear better. Not after big HP, just much greater mid range torque.
Thank you again!

I forgot to mention that I do not have a 3" downpipe installed with this exhaust so if you do install a downpipe, it might be louder than mines.

Good point! I have to swap out the down pipe for inspections. I hope the cat fits exactly in place. If not, I'm in trouble. Any high flow cats. you know of out there by any chance?
Thank you sir!
