I have the CM one and it's resonated. Can't tell about the Ebay one. It doesn't say in the description, so I'm guessing it's not. If it's not resonated, your exhaust will be louder.

I'm happy with my CM one. Well made. No fitment issues. Still shiny after over a year on the max.

You might have a bad/damaged gasket on the pipe.

Not worth it at all if your not boosted, actually you will lose some back pressure, torque, and mpg with this damn thing, i took mine off a long time ago
