I bought an Ebay 3 inch diameter "GOD SNOW" (LOL) SS kit for my K series ITR. I used it to harvest the piping, bends, and hangers. I cut the whole thing up and used it to fabricate a custom exhaust myself.
The bends were terrible. Nothing I could really do about that. So I used K Teller bends to supplement this.
The fitment is also usually bad. The fitment on my finished product was good because I ensured that things fit before welding.
All the flanges were warped and did not seal. It had to buy flanges and/or come up with ways to make the GOD SNOW flanges seal.
So....even for use as a chop-up to fabricate...it was bad, and mostly unusable without modification.
I had no intention of using their resonator or muffler. I bought those seperately from Vibrant.
Decent barbed hangers, though.
Why are you doing this? Is there something wrong with your stock exhaust?

If you want a cheap exhaust mod that still has good results look into the UK Exhaust Mod on these forums.
Not sure on the details but it's just a modified OEM system I think.

Save your money and grief, B serious has first hand knowledge of the eBay stuff.
You would be much better off with a name brand used system or a UK modded OEM as Chance has suggested. I would suggest buying a second OEM exhaust to get modified as you will retain your factory system if you ever want to return to stock.
