should i get the xo2 or keep the topspeed?

so my topspeed is really loud, and I don't want to buy an hks, FI, or other exhaust as I don't think it's worth it. Now I live in norcal so there isn't any snow, and doesn't rain too much. I was thinking of buying the xo2 right now on ebay since I can get $116 cashback and only end up paying $370 shipped for it. Is this a good deal? I am planning on buying some sort of metal protectant as well that I'd spray on it before installing, in hopes of preventing rust. I have my own titanium tips so the tips won't be used cuz they're ugly.. what are you opinions?

Do what you want...if you feel like that's your best course of action, then do it.

I found a 3" FI exhaust minus the extensions basically brand new on ebay for $800 shipped and i get $200 cashback.. should i buy it? I think 3" may be too big for my car since im N/A, but i do like the burnt tips so should I get the xo2?

If you are talking about the FI dominator in the classifieds, its WAY too big for NA, its a full 3 inch true dual. If you like the XO2 then get it, just throw those Ti tips you have on it and your set!

no but basically all buy it now auctions :P go to live.com and search for something.. the first search result should be an ebay thing that says "you can earn up to 30% cashback" and when you hit buy it now, it shows how much cashback you earn

you have to actually hit "buy it now" on one of the auctions.. you dont confirmm until after you hit it, and then it shows you either "this is not eligible for cashback" or "this item is eligible and you can receive $$$$"
