quick review:

quality: welds are good. piping looks good (hard to screw that up) overall im happy with it for the price.

sound: unforgiving is the best way to describe it. any horsepower i would have gained have been negated due to the fact that i WILL not take it above 3k without the silencer in. the things DRONES your head into soup in a matter of 10 minutes..and coming from a 20 year old young guy that is saying something. with the silencer in its good and sounds nice, but how much HP loss from stock are we looking at then?

Looks: i like the angle. i realize its not everyones cup of tea, but i think its different and i like it.

overall: i cant imagine the guys running 70mm without silencers. this thing DRONES. but i saved some weight over stock. got a product that is brand new to the market and the quality seems good for the price. would i buy again? i would have waited to see before and after dyno shits w/ and w/o silencer compared to stock.

I would imagine that most exhaust would be LOUD with a test pipe.

alright my exhaust is on and i love it

mine is only cat back so no test pipe and it's loud
i dunno how some of u guys are running this with a testpipe lol

slight drone in the 4000-5000 rpm range but not bad at all

strangely with this exhaust, at cruising speeds it is very quiet

very very deep exhaust, absolutely no rice or raspiness (due to my relief)

i haven't tried running it with a silencer yet, i'll do it later this week but i've heard it sounds pretty good with the silencer albeit quiet

here's all the pictures covering all the angles
fitment is excellent (i was skeptical at first buying a megan product but i'm impressed)
my car is on stock suspension, not lowered so i'm fine with clearance

if ur car is lowered 1" or more u need to becareful when going over bumps
