Okay guys.. im wondering what the biggest difference between the two is. I see a lot of people trying to get skunk, greddy, evo, etc.. and the price is wayy over the roof for a simle 1-5hp increase. Now i heard that the reason why those companies are so damn expensive is because your paying for the CARB legal bullshit. If so is that the only difference?

You are paying for materials and R&D. CBE's do not require CARB exemption; they only need to comply with DB/noise restrictions. In my experience, no-names tend to rattle, rust, squeak, etc.

If you go with a cheap variant, at least hold onto your stock CBE. More than likely you'll revert back to it or upgrade to a reputable aftermarket one.
