Invidia n1 catback exhaust off amazon

I was wondering if buying a Invidia n1 catback exhaust off amazon would be ok without getting ripped off. Just don't feel like going through the hassle of getting something other then what I'm expecting. P.S. I drive a 09 Impreza sedan

Part Number: HS08SI4GTP

Re: Invidia n1 catback exhaust off amazon

I would not trust Amazon with car parts. Honestly, I'm not sure I'd trust them with anything, their business practices can be a bit shady. It's kind of like taking your car to wal-mart (beyond shady) for anything more complex than an oil change. A company that has it's hand in so many other things is going to be mediocre at everything they do. It's always better for a business to focus on one thing and do it brilliantly instead of doing an absurdly large number of things and saying "that'll do" or even "f*ck it, somebody will buy it" to everything. You're better off looking in places that specialize in car parts and I wouldn't be surprised if you find that same exhaust cheaper somewhere else.

Re: Invidia n1 catback exhaust off amazon

Once upon a time I managed to find a '91 Honda Prelude Si with a JDM B21A. The guy didn't know what a gem he had and I didn't tell him so I got a good deal on it. Anyway, I wanted a boost in power without doing anything too drastic. While I had the cylinder head in the machine shop to have the valve seals done, I asked about head work, and the guy came up with a way to open up the intake and exhaust ports without having to make custom gaskets which would have cost an arm and a leg. The next logical step in my mind was a cold air intake, performance headers and exhaust. I found everything I needed at the site I'm putting up the link for. Your car isn't that old, so they'll probably have all kinds of performance parts available to do just about anything you want with your car. You will need to provide make, model, year, and other details like which engine you have and you'll be able to view aftermarket performance made specifically for your car. When I discovered this place I felt like a kid in a candy shop. Good luck.
