What exhaust is this?

Like the title says, a local guy is selling this and I'm trying to figure out what brand it is. He doesn't know. Kinda looks like RSR but I've never seen one with burnt tips before. Anyone know?

That's a major fugly system and it's a single not worth installing.... You'd be better off getting HFCs since that's where the restriction is and keep your OE exhaust!

I pretty much knew it was a POS exhaust if the owner didn't already know what brand it was. I'd been reading the reviews on the topspeed pro-1 and RS*R and was pretty turned off by what I read. By the looks, I'd imagine this exhaust is loud as hell, and yeah...won't be doing that.

He was only asking $200 which piqued my interest, but at this point would rather keep the quiet/comfort of my stock note.

Well to sum up what I read, it's hella loud and therefore drones through the cabin more than probably any other exhaust option. Given the price, the fitment is pretty shoddy. And finally it makes your car sound like a fart-can civic on steroids, which isn't exactly the sound I'm going for either.

Yea, from what i've been able to research, i heard you lose low end power and the drone is bearable depending on whether it bugs you or not. The drone is bad but some people that have the exhaust eventually get used to it. No fitment for exhausts are 100% perfect, you get what you pay for. IMO, I thought the topspeed sounded like sex to my ears.
