Top Speed Pro - HFC?

Anyone have any experience with these?

http://www.topspeedauto.com/ProductC...idproduct=1561

I'm curious as to why they're considerably cheaper than most HFC's.. TopSpeed is just down the road from me and its very tempting..

best thing to do is to buy them and review them yourself!

You'll get what you pay for. Fitment will probably be bad and the cat bricks will probably seperate within a few thousand miles. On the flip side, I think $380-460 for HFCs from Kintex, Berk, Stillen, etc is highway robbery too.

I had a TopSpeed exhaust and the quality was awesome. Welds and finish were great. And I bought them used. Its sold and on its third owner, and it will likely make it to a 4th owner. If you're feeling those HFC's, I say go for it.

Had TopSpeed headers on my NSX. Was very pleased with them. They were like a DC copy but better quality and a great price too ( for NSX headers at least ).

Im either going to call TopSpeed or swing by after work. Is there anything specific I should ask them? Cell count, things like that?

Ask them why they're so cheap.

To be honest though, I would get TopSpeed again if I had the chance. "dont trip".

I don't want test-pipes because of the rasp, but at 121,000, my cats could probably stand to be changed, and I'd rather not bend over for Kintex or Berk.

Yes, ask about the cat design. Is it a brick or is it the wrapped metallic foil. IMO, the brick design is more reliable.
