replica mufflers?

whats the word on these? iv seen Apexi and tanabe "style" mufflers on ebay and other places for SUPER cheap.

does the actual brand name make that much of a difference? they both seem to be made of the same material (stainless steel or titanium).

what makes an actual apexi muffler worth an extra 100-200$ ?

probably weld quality, metal quality (even though its the same metal, not all of that metal is the same grade or quality), fitment...

if the difference is $100, and you plan onusing it for a couple of years... spend the extra money and know that you're getting something good, otherwise, you're gonna spend the price of both after the cheap one breaks a year down the line.
