For anyone still in denial about valvetronic, here's the proof.
They're buying $600 exhausts, and marking them up to $4500 😂 |

You can't compare what some overseas companies title their stuff to what a company here is named . Even Vivid Racing is putting the word "valvetronic" in their descriptions . You can't tell me these are Valvetronic's exhausts...... https://www.google.com/search?sca_es...67974147114583 https://www.google.com/search?sca_es...67256813103685 https://www.google.com/search?sca_es...46233550501874 |

I'm not saying anyone needs to like Valvetronic (the company) but they also don't need to bash a company for what they do . You don't like it , don't buy it ! I also read that the Valvetronic exhaust and the Alibaba style exhausts look identical ??? Someone post up a side by side and show me where they are the same . |

Nevermind....I got it .
Here are the two in which I circled the differences on the "other" brand . You could be a naked mole rat and see the differences . I guess other than what I circled , they are identical Like I said , I have no skin in the game as I never even installed their exhaust . To me , everyone is just jumping on the bandwagon to bash a company that they have no dealings with . |

I have literally had a conversation with a sales rep from JTLD about Valvetronic, that is where they are getting their products from. Valvetronic's marketing really worked on you lol Nothing about that company is special, it's a $600 exhaust that they've tackwelded a nameplate onto. |

I think JTLD has an option to put a custom emblem or something on it. You could very easily tell them to weld the same plate as the reseller and tada! you have an "authentic" valvetronics or carban or whatever exhaust for a fraction of the price. |

I put up 2 pictures for comparison to show that the Valvetronic and the competitors exhaust are not the same . So Valvetronic buys their stuff from JTLD Nobody can say that they are the same . HRE sells their flow formed wheels with their name on it and they are not made by HRE . People buy it because of the name . |

Nobody is bashing JTLD or Chinese producers, it's been proven their stuff is legit.
I get it, you're trying to justify your purchase, but you got ripped off. With their bulk pricing, they're probably getting them for $450 and selling them for $4500 😂😂 Could have went straight to the source and got the exact same thing for $600. If you want to keep telling yourself that the stuff valvetronic sells is different, go for it. But you're wrong. |

"bruh the welds" is usually what people say, its metal that carries exhaust, not advanced science. There are some that are sleek and cool, but end all be all, its an exhaust tube, the muffler and resonator size and placement is more critical, but if they just pipe it, I have no sympathy. We made an exhaust once that made cars sound like v10 supercars because it had a resonance chamber to mimic high pitched rumbling coolest shit ever. Took us about a week and simple welding.

Well they cheated they had a v12! But yes, we basically made it sound like a trombone/trumpet but to get the sound we had to restriction it so much it almost killed the engine lol. I'll tr and find a video somewhere, but think LFA sound mixed with a honda civic fart can.

I purchased the stainless and not titanium so I think I got a good deal on what I bought . No , it wasn't $450 but it was no where near your $4500 price tag . Quote:
Anyone want to show me where the 2 different exhausts are identical and disprove the circled differences I posted ? Next question I have is what did everyone else pay for their Alibaba exhaust ? |
