What's the difference between these exhausts?
 

Since I am working towards spec but for now I still drive to the events and I need a muffler. The problem is the weight of the OEM boat anchor. Since I might not keep oit long and I don't care abouot drone I have been looking for something cheap. I read with interest the reviews of the Top Speed pro 1 unit but I am even cheaper than $500! I have started to see these $275 exhausts on ebay and for the life of me I can't tell the difference between the 2!
What do you think?
the Top Speed Pro
and the cheaper one

since no one has experienced either of these two low cost systems, I would think you answered your own question by stating you are note keeping them long anyway, Buy the cheap one and when the time comes throw them away.
Good luck :dance:

I'm certain they both drone like mad, so given similar products I'd just get the cheaper one if you're not interested in paying more for something good.

Only thing I noticed was the slightest difference in pictured attachment hardware. :rolleyes: I agree with others, since it's a temporary thing, might as well pay less...though I also think for that same amount of money you could do something like Wret's and have it be pretty permanent if you choose. Here's the thread.

They are probably the same exhaust out of the same factory. The top speed headers appear to be identical to the cheap chinese ones you can get for $100.

There are actually a couple of threads on the Top Speed Pro with favorable feedback on sound and weight.
I am waiting on a response from Wret on the weight of his home-made unit.
