I last 'pushed' my car with the OE exhaust in October 2017.
It then sat for six months, before I drove it with the Mugen exhaust on.
That and I've spent years ignoring my butt dyno so at this point it doesn't exist.

It is quite nice in looks and sound but I am surprised how small diameter it actually is. Not much of a difference over stock so I wonder what the performance benefit is? How is it? More power and torque you can definitely feel?
We can trust Mugen, they really do know what they are doing after all

I had a bigger diameter exhaust before the Mugen and from my experience, you'll loose a litte in the low rpm range and gain a little in the upper rpm range.
With the Mugen you don't loose anything in the low rpm range, You might gain some ponys in the low and upper range because of it's design but it's neglectable.
Running the Mugen with a hfc or a res. testpipe makes it in specific situations, mostly while crusing with not much load and low rpm, more quiet then with the oem catalytic. But when you step on the throttle, it sounds very nice.
By far my favourite exhaust so far. Before the Mugen, I had the GReddy Spectrum Elite dual and after 2 years, I couldn't stand it's drone and sound any more after it was burned-in.

The diameter is good for n/a setup. If you want to go supercharged or turbo with the Mugen, you will loose around 10hp in comparision with a bigger diameter exhaust.
