Definitely. That's why I've only bought used performance parts! Saved myself like $1k already just by doing that and they work exactly the same.

i assume through the F/S section? Ive had terrible luck in the past with forum sales. I sent 1500 bucks to a guy through paypal for his wheels and tires, never got them. Im definitely changing out the exhaust. But theres a thousand choices for catbacks, with my M3, there were maybe 3-4 choices.

Yeah. You've got to watch that section like a hawk if you want to grab the best deals before someone else does. I got my exhaust for $700 and my intakes for $300, both roughly half the cost of new.

I know everything so we can just play 20 exhaust questions and I can tell you which one to buy.
