Most of them are the same off the shelf systems that you buy from exhaust shops.
Thats not to say there couldnt be any faults, but for the price you pay on ebay, its not too bad.

I got mine through a seller called "exhausts-online". I couldn't recommend him highly enough. The blokes name is Scott and he couldn't have been more helpful with the transaction and was on call when I needed a few pointers installing the thing.

If you get one with a rear resonator you'll be fine. Mines not an ebay one, but its the same sort of deal. Single muffler and they drone a bit too much, but with the resonator, its perfect.

I'm a little confused if its the same guy as the "Scotts Rods" listing above but Scott from "exhausts-online" just emailed me back to say he's just moved to QLD and only started relisting his systems yesterday. He said he can be contacted via email at exhaustsonline@bigpond.com if anyone wants a quote.
