Lightbulb dc sports uppipe... any good?

i found this thing on ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW
is this anygood? comes with gaskets and everything and its daym cheap for a flex uppipe so it should seal properly, and its made by a somewhat prestigious brand. any downsides to this uppipe?

If you don't have a down pipe or a TBE you might as well get one now.

best one is sti uppipe..
no need to spend extra money for name brand.. because they do not add any performance..
