12GB, not 64GB
This flash drive only stores 12GB of data before overwriting it. The result is the rest of the data gets corrupted. The computer will read it as a 64GB drive, but in fact it only has a capacity of 12GB.

Good materials, looks nice, strong & sturdy... but built with unacceptable tolerances
3 of 3 found this helpful I wanted to replace my cars entire exhaust system with a stainless steel system, since three previous systems have rusted out. Most recently, my exhaust system fell apart 1500 miles from home. Although the manifold on my car was actually in pretty good shape, with only surface rust, nothing major, I decided to replace that as well. For that, I purchased this.
Overall, the design looks pretty nice. I'm not sure if it's just the placebo effect or the power gains are actually that noticeable, but my car *feels* more responsive to me.Since the car has 147hp stock (It's the biggest real B series engine, but it doesn't have any vtec) and weighs 3000lbs without all my stuff in it, more power is nice. Knowing this thing is stainless steel is nice. Being able to reach my oil dipstick for once is nice. (It's a bit of a pain with the stock setup) This is probably the nicest looking part of my engine bay. (I need to paint my valve cover sometime. It looks rough)
The build quality of this piece, upon initial inspection, seems super nice! The plates are thick metal, and the welds seem to be done right. The pipes are all the same length from what I can tell, and I must say I was excited to see this on my car. Unfortunately, this product, at least the one I purchased, had a major set of issues. For one, the plate had too much area below the bottom screw holes. This meant it physically did not fit on the engine. Two little column like things protruding from the engine block interfered with the fitment around the very bottom of it. Quite a lot of material had to be removed from the header to make it fit. As well, the screw holes are really large. It looks as though the manufacturer couldn't be bothered with precision, and so compensated by making them large enough to give some wiggle room. Except even then one of them was still not within that wiggle room and the hole needed to be widened. To add insult to injury, it doesn't seem like they made an effort to machine the two main faces perfectly flat before assembling, because the face of it wasn't flat. It's close enough that the gasket seems to compensate, but still. It's just not built at all to an acceptable tolerance for such an expensive bolt on part.
After the modifications that shouldn't have had to be done, the part does work well though. It looks nice, it seems to perform well, and it's not leaking as far as I can tell. The down-pipe went on smoothly, it bolted to its proper mounting bracket perfectly and mated with the catalytic converter just fine. The only fitment issues were with the engine head due to the bolt hole and the bottom that hits the engine block. Everywhere else was fine. So, I mean, with it all complete I am happy with the result. But I really can't speak too highly of this product unfortunately.
I'd also like to very much point out that I brought these issues up with the seller, and they exhibited legitimate concern. They wanted me to send them pictures so that they could bring this up to their supplier. So hopefully future versions of this will not have these issues. As well, I really do want it to be clear that these are issues from the manufacturer and not the seller.
Overall, in its current state, despite the final results, I really couldn't recommend this. Once finally fitted, it works really well and looks quite nice. It seems very strongly built out of great materials. But for the price, the manufacturing tolerances are just too poor where the header meets the head for me to be able to recommend it. Again, hopefully these issues will be remedied by the manufacturer, and hopefully my comments on the issues will someday be made obsolete while hopefully my praises will stay valid. If the tolerances were tightened up, this would be well worth the asking price.

Factory fit, (It's important!) won't rust, might even give me a few extra horses. So I'm definitely happy!
1 of 1 found this helpful After having the third exhaust system on my car rust out 1500 miles from home, I decided I wanted to do the whole thing in stainless. I purchased this catalytic converter as part of my build. Now, I really should have paid a bit more attention when buying it, because I'm considering moving to California after I graduate. Wouldn't you know it? This cat is illegal in California, and the state in which I go to college, New York. Ah well, it's registered in Maine right now, so that sounds like an issue for a future me. That's my fault though for not paying enough attention. If you live in California or New York, Magnaflow makes a version that is legal in those two states. Otherwise, this is pretty great!
Okay, okay, so you probably want more details on the product itself. Well, unlike generic fit ones, where you have to bodge them in, this one is a direct fit! So that means you can bolt it on with the correct mounts. These mounts are important, because they let the engine move. Yeah, your engine moves, and mounted to it is either a manifold, or in my case a header. Through a down-pipe, this connects to your catalytic converter, and if you give no room fore movement, your moving engine will break it. Having the proper mounts keeps this from happening. So I'm super happy to have a factory fit.
Because this thing is stainless, it isn't going to rust out in a few years. Seriously, if you live in the north-east, the stock CR-V exhaust system will rust out super quickly. Go with stainless! This seems to be a good stainless system that mounts correctly. Because it's designed for performance, it also has the added benefit of increasing horsepower. So that's a bonus.
Is an increase in horsepower noticeable with this? I don't know. I also put headers on my car, which likely made more of a difference. So, I can't say how much was due to this. Also I didn't dyno anything. Any gains could just be the placebo effect for all I know.
I do wish this came with more mounting hardware. The trouble with building a full exhaust system is that it's unclear what hardware should come with which part. In my case, the mounting hardware for the cat didn't come with either part it mounts to and it didn't come with this. So I had to buy it separately. Ah well. No biggy.
Overall, I would recommend this product as long as you don't live or plan to live in New York or California. (If you do, there's a similar legal version which is probably also good.) It works well, it won't rust, and because it has the proper mounts versus a generic fit, it won't break when your engine moves. Heck, it might even make your car a bit more powerful too. I'm happy with it!
