i think i would avoid it, its not even full stainless by the look of it. just a stainless tip on a steel box.

Stay clear of cheap exhaust systems - it'll be a pain in the arse to fit and will rot within a few years. I'd also question the performance gains.

If you're after more power you should save you cash and get the miltek challange kit with the flexipipe at the engine manifold. You should also sort out the induction at the same time..... not cheap, but should give you a noticable gain without the need for a re-map straight away

sportex ones arent that bad just give them an extra coat off paint before you fit it and it should be good for years,
not my choice off tail pipe in that picture
at the end off the day you pay for what you get
my magnex has just cost me 273
