Over rated in my opinion, £280 for a back box is a lot of money.

They always fetched a consistent £250.... scabby ones now with the "usual scrape underneath" bullshyte sales punchline, people think they can get £300 for. These people are bellends

It's a nice branded exhaust but it looks better than it sounds. If it's damaged starting price is £100. If the tip is scratched they look rubbish regardless.

It's like STi Genome gauges - Defi's with a badge and a mark up on price. I had a full Fujitsubo Titanium system on my WRX RA, light as fewk, brilliant build quailty and sounded awesome.
