Default Manzo Exhaust?

Anybody install a Manzo axle back SS exhaust system? Claim is deeper sound. Price is very reasonable.

Might be China made, I would check, $699 for an exhaust system for these cars seems awfully cheap!

Sorry sold it but I have my Remus sitting here.

Straight pipes on the car now and supplies on the way to build my own exhaust.

I like my Remus though. Cut out cats but 3in tapered to 2.75. (That's all custom)

You can email me. Tstilovich at

Agreed cheap usually equals junk.

I purchased a set to use as the basis for a Frankenstein system with muffler bypass valves. It drones like crazy. Gonna add me some resonator pipes probably, or ditch the thing and start from scratch. I just hate that I pissed away good money on it...

I had also bought a set, while I was trying to locate the rattle sound, in my engine.
Overall, for the price the quality is not bad at all and the fitment is good. Downside is the bloody drone at 80 KPH. Lower or above the 80 KPH was not noticeable. The starting sound is awesome. I even passed the MOT with a CO2 cheater, which I bought from Fabspeed, for 120 USD a pair.
The weight is much lighter than the OEM and it is still rust free. I have gone back to the OEM but I will keep it as a back up, for an emergency.
For USD 449 + 60 shipping + 120 cheater it's not bad at all, for a cheapskate like me.

That's another point against it - no cats. It looks like it has cats, but I had to pay another $900 to have race cats installed. All I'm left with now is the mufflers, but with the crazy drone, I now plan to remove them and replace with an X-pipe muffler.


Verdict for me: a lesson in how NOT to spend $500.

You just gave me an idea.. I have a guy who rebuilds CATs,, he can stick any new 200 cell CATs off any model, into my Manzo. Since Manzo is half the weight of OEM,, hmmmmm,,,,
