Even if you are using the steel version -- it probably -still- is very expensive compared to what is in the market. That, and like most other JDM exhausts it isn't even a full CBE.

Meh.

I'm not using it at all. I'm merely interested in this build that happens to be using a lot of Top Secret parts I haven't ever seen before. I haven't paid a dime for this stuff, but I have heard it on the car. It is amazing and purportedly makes great power.

For whatever it's worth, I believe the price is in line with the Amuse titanium exhaust phelan put on. I'm not a customer for that one either, but think it's pretty nice, too.

I don't know -- is there something wrong with admiring things that are out of my price range?

The you was not specifically you, but anyone in general who would consider it.

No, admire whatever you like. Just the same, is there anything wrong with rolling your eyes at incredible price mark-ups simply because of name and place of origin?

I mean, I have no problem with saying "oh hey that is nice" or whatever, but to me it is like the Oakley Elite line of sunglasses/watches. They are honestly the same exact thing just in a different color -- and $5,000+. The only reason they are expensive is because they are expensive. That sort of masturbatory thing sort of irks me and boggles my mind, but hey, whatever floats your boat.

Yeah, I get that. Changing a color and pricing on brand alone get an eye roll from me too. Top Secret, however, proves to be better every time it's put to the test. So, maybe it is worth it...just not worth it to me.

A Tag Heur and a Timex both do the exact same thing, yet cost thousands of dollars difference. Call me an idiot, but I really like the Tag.
