Hello, I am new to the forum. I just bought a 2000 Eclipse GS, and the flex pipe on the exhaust is leaking. I need to replace/fix the exhaust. The local exhaust shops want $100+ to replace the flex pipe. My questions is... While searching ebay I came across this ad
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&viewitem=&item=170141319183 Is this a good set up/brand? Any problems with using it? I am not looking for any performance gains, only that for $100 more then getting just the flex pipe fixed I can get new exhaust from the head to the cat. Opinions are very much welcome as this is my first "import" Thanks in advance.

Never ever ever buy car parts from eBay lol. Just a heads up... OBX is possibly the worst brand ever

This is exactly why I wanted to ask here first. What would you do to fix the exhaust problem? The downpipe with the flex pipe is a dealer only item. Is there any other options? Thanks for all the help.

Yes actually. There are muffler shops that can cut that flex piece off and weld in another : ) alternatively you can buy one from Mitsu Stealership (and get raped)
