So, in order to top my previous personal record for budget exhaust setup I scored a 390 pipe on Amazon for 24 bucks (including 1 cent shipping...)

Took at least 4 weeks to arrive.

Its looks like an SC Project although according to the Official SC Project website description of what fakes look like, it could be a fake. 😯

Test fitting it, I noticed the welded on spring tabs on the mid pipe are not equal distance apart which resulted in the top spring being too long. The muffler part looked aight, but the mid pipe looked fugly.

It has no db killer in either end, and it came with a blank e-approval label so you can print your name and address on it if you want; I guess.

To make it work I shortened the spring and upgraded the link pipe "Rolling Stones" style.

Haven't repacked it yet, but I would say it needs it as the stuff it came with is visibly reducing itself after 1 test lap, and smells itchy...

Its the lightest slip on so far at 1142g, which will probably go up with a full load of quality packing.

No droning at highway speed, actually sounds and runs much better than the badass pipe, good sound level too...except at exactly 4000-5000 its laud as truck...

I'm thinking China knock off, but hey for that money its worth a play :D
Keen to let out some more sounds on my 701, but not sure what to go with yet, I'm a big fan of Akrapovic, but the Vit one is big, and nearly $2,000 in my country, so don't think I will go there.

Had it been advertised as SC Project, I would not have bought it... what I did buy is a no name product from China and I put a Super Cheap Project sticker on it...

I may as well put an AMG sticker on my lawn mower... because it Always Mows Grass
