Default OBX cat back exhaust for 1998 S70 T5

Hi I'm new to this forum and not sure if I'm looking or posting in the right spot. I tried doing a search on this site for this info but was unable to find anything.
My question is about the OBX exhaust system available on eBay. They are available for about $350 plus shipping. I was wondering what peoples thoughts on these are. How does this compare in quality and sound to the Cat back exhaust system available at IPD? Theirs of course is a bit more expensive @ around $900 bucks!
Has anyone tried the OBX and what was the result? Sound? Nice tone? Too loud? Or are there other systems that one might recommend?
And what about the O2 sensor. It's my understanding that the OBX doesn't have a port for one. I also would NOT be using a Cat converter because I don't need to in my city. Any thoughts to keep the CEL from coming on.
Any info or links would be of great help. Thanks in advance!

Rory

Check Youtube for sound clips of this exhaust. A lot of people love it from what I hear. It is a cheap alternative to IPD USA and other high end exhaust systems.

I would have it drilled and tapped for at least one 02 sensor if not both. If your gungho on not using them try the 02 foolers.
