      @@shadow679king6 From one company to another I can’t really speak on their quality, but I will just say our Uro Parts brand flange kit that we have been using for years on our website is half the price of theirs and we have not had any issues. You did also mention that the bottom half was the only side that melted, this sounds a little bit more like a pinched O-ring during install rather than it actually melting. If an O-ring is pinched when installed and car runs, when the O-ring is removed, it will have a very visible flat spot which could be interpreted as having melted.

      @@mikespeed3928 hardly any, but any time you have a straight pipe on these cars you will get some degree of rasp, it will vary depending on which downpipes you have too. However this system does a good job of mitigating it with the cross X section in the middle so even with full catless downpipes and no resonators it sounds miles better than any other straight through exhaust I’ve heard.

      @@mikespeed3928 The main thing about Turner’s valved exhausts that I don’t like is pneumatic valve control. This means an air compressor is running in your trunk which sometimes you can hear through the backseat but more importantly it takes a few seconds from the time you hit the button to actuate the valves open and closed. Bomiz is electronic which is immediate, and when you look at brand new cars from the last few years such as BMW for example, all of the factory installed valve systems are electronic, none are pneumatic for a reason.
