#47591, "obx exhaust, good or bad?"


          

what does everyone think about OBX products especially their exhaust? im looking at the type h, and the type R? Or should I just fork out the extra $150 for a Greddy Evo? I would definalty go for the nicer exhaust if I had a star or HRC upgrade.

I have the OBX Exshaust and I am happy with it....but I would always recommend the Greddy over mine though

how about this. I have pacesetter piping with an OBX muffler. The other day I was driving through the mall parking deck and I set off EVERY SINGLE car alarm in there just by driving by normally. I didnt rev the engine, hell i didnt even try, but every single alarm went off. I thought it was great, lol. The people who owned the cars didnt think so, but I couldnt have been happier. It was like announcing my presence.

That is one great thing about the OBX exshaust you know you are able to set off multiple alarms...the most ive set off at one time is 4.....who else has set off mult alarms at once with this exshaust????
