i've heard alot of horror stories and alot of good ones too. it seems to vary alot. MAC has updated their stuff alot in the last couple of years though and since then i only hear good things about them. i have the older style MAC shorty headers and catted h-pipe and never had any problems with it, fittment was not perfect but decent, and they have a little of surface rust but nothing bad. if i were to change my exhaust system for a new one i'd still go for MAC, better prices and their new stuff looks great.

I also have Mac shorty headers and the off-road x-pipe. Nothing has started rusting yet and it's been on the car for about 2 years now.

i think all their exhaust products are pretty good. Not too sure about their intakes though......lol. Didn't seem to fit too well. Other than that i think their exhaust is a good deal for the price.
