dont let the price fool you. megan has some very good quality products i am very impressed with their stuff. i say go for it!
I said the same about my header. I have learned a few things when dealing with cars, just because it costs $9818417481074 doesn't mean it's the best. I am very happy with my $400 header. I hear the Megan coilovers are great also.

Hey guys my car is flashing the abs light after dyno test is it normal? The guy in the shop said you can go for a couple of miles and the light will go away itself. but i didnt do that and had the code pulled in a honda service next to the shop. What do you think can the abs light go away after a couple of miles driving?

Thanks
Tolga

version you should do a dyno to see the gains with the bigger diameter piping. Compared to your previous dyno. It'll be a nice to see how much you gains by going with the bigger exhaust.

that is totally normal and the lite will go off in a few miles.


i am very excited to get this car on the dyno. the ass dyno says i've hit my 230 goal with some hp to spare. i recently found out that spoon is actaully 60mm so a 10mm jump in exhaust diameter is going to be a BIG gain. that combined with the J's jr(megan) header should equal 235 to the wheels.

^well i kno the pipe size is diff, so if i got a 2.5 test pipe id see better power? Exhaust feels great as it is.
