Default Installed the test pipe today!

I finally got around to installing the Megan testpipe today. It sounds friggin awsome!! Under light or normal throttle, no big difference. WOT or 5000 rpm and above is very nice. And for icing on the cake, I had a little run-in with a Firebird Trans Am tonight. After I was done spinning my bald tires, he had about a car and a half on me, then I pulled back fairly quickly and kept pulling well into 5th. With a good hookup, there would have been no looking back! The guy was pretty cool too. Anyways, if anybody is thinking about the testpipe, the fitment and quality of the Megan is very nice, and the O2 sensor fix is a nice touch. Definitely a worthwile mod.

A test pipe definately adds a nice tone to the exhaust.

Yea - agree.

Be careful out there everyone - but have fun.

Yeah, I admit I was being a little mischievous, but there was no traffic around and a very nice straight highway. Gotta have a little fun every now and then.

I also have a T1R sparrow exhaust system and Comptech CAI. I really enjoy the combo. Sounds good and adds a couple hp.
