Need feedback from actual owners

Hello M6/M5 owners.

I'm in the market for an exhaust for my M6, does anyone have experience with this eBay one and can provide feedback?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/11343657638...8AAOSwDYdcDUo4

The seller seems to be Uk based.

Thanks

Don't have experience with the one posted but I'm cautious of Ebay.

This is one that I've been looking at. Full titanium with carbon fiber tips for $5k. Or stainless steel for $4k. Could probably message them and get a better price too.

The one posted by the OP is made by the Topgear brand. I have their complete exhaust system (from DP back), and it is actually very good quality. It's been on the car for three years now and no complaints. It has factory fitment, and the stainless steel still looks as fresh as the day it was installed. As for the sound, it really wakes up the exhaust note and even gives the car a very deep and throaty sound when the valves are open. All without being obnoxiously loud. The price seems to have gone up quite a bit unfortunately, as I paid about £2050 (~$2500 at the time) for the full setup.

Thank all for the feedback, I looked at most exhaust options out there but not necessarily convinced I should pay a minimum of $5,000 for a decent setup, hence the question.

My short list now is:
Eisnemann mufflers - Sport version to avoid drown, down side no valve and chrome tips
FI Exhaust (steal)
Valvetronic (steel)
Ebay mufflers in the above link

Preferred but out of budget for the this project:

Akra and MP

I have full Stainless turbo back XS power downpipes at 3/18 inch wrapped and a full valved FI stainless steel exhaust. it sounds very good in my opinion

I have a few videos of it revving in different configurations for reference

catted vales open


catless valves open, sorry for the bad sound on this one

also just as a side know being tuned can also affect your tone based on how much torque you make, after hearing a few of these with different tunes and the same exhaust setup, its pretty amazing to hear a difference even though it is small

Is it normal to have so much white smoke?

Can't do muffler delete, it's not allowed were I live and with annual inspection I run the risk of losing vehicle license.
