is this a worthwhile exhaust?

actually made my way to ebay after viewing warpspeeds auctions they currently have going on there, and i noticed this pacesetter exhaust system. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...478618851&rd=1 i really like the fact that the muffler is all blacked out, i think itd look good on my car. however, i dont wanna be buying somethin like this and have it blow up in my face because of shoddy manufacturing. so my question is, should i spring for the complete warpspeed system or get this, and what would be the difference in gains and sound. oh and also, whats up with this engine, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...478010638&rd=1 do they still produce motors for our car or is this thing really 10 years old and has under 50k miles on it?

I suggest you to get Warpspeed system and you will be happy once it installed.

Looks like stock replacement stuff to me.
the pipes are mandrel bent BUT you also have a 1 piece system split into 3 pieces.
So the gains would be minimal

Not to mention Pacesetter is ABSOLUTE crap. Stay away from Pacesetter!

FYI: stay away from companies that import engines, especially when you can get one in the US. You can get a complete engine rebuild kit from Courtesy for about the same price they are asking for what is left of that engine, and you would be better off! I do speak from experience. You need to especially stay away from Midwest Engines!
