Default Testpipe worth it?

I currently have the Megan exhaust and headers. I have a friend who is willing to sell me their Invidia test pipe and defouler for $80, should I do it?

I have a berk test pipe and its awesome. Sounds better, better MPG too (slightly), and better reponse and power. Make sure it matches up properly though.

I have one and the sound and power is great. Note for lighter colored cars: have fun scrubbing the soot off your rear bumper with a claybar every so often. It's horrible.

After having both I would really recommend a high flow cat instead. Peace of mind and no annoying gas smell when sitting in traffic or in the garage.

i think its preference if the smell bothers you or not. i dont even notice it. HFC is overpriced IMO and its not even smog legal in CA
