Can someone give me more info on Tenzo-R cat back exhausts? Currently I have a Nakayama exhaust and I've been offered a trade with a tenzo. Don't really know what to do???

Thanks

BTW: great site you got here. Don't know why I didn't come over earlier

cant really say both companies dont have the best reputation in quality and product....is it a full cat back system or just the muffler
also depends on your mods, your engein and waht you looking for

IF your trading catback for catback, find out the diameters of the piping. If the tenzo is like a 3inch pipe, then you know why the dude wants to trade! ITs hard to determine the correct exhaust diameter, when you have to consider your current mods, and correct back-pressure, etc.. But along the lines of Nakayama and Tenzo exhausts, if they are both the same diameter, and both mandrel bent (constant diameter throughout the bends) then doesnt seem like its worth the trade. thats just my opiniono.

I can't speak on the build quality of Tenzo's exhausts, but their headers suck ass. We put one on my cousin's DA Integra, and the welds are very sloppy, and the flanges aren't too great either. It was $100, so he didn't really care, but I wouldn't really want to run one. I'd imagine their exhausts are of similar quality.

Thanks for the info. I think I'll just stick with my Nakayama.

I find it strange that both Nakayama and Tenzo-R are considert bad quality in the US. If you see what people have for exhaust here in Europe both brands are on the high end of the line...
