Looks good Freq!
I got my tracking number from them today, looks like it will be here Friday... I'll be posting up a review on it by the end of this weekend along with a groupbuy for them. Keep your eyes peel for it.

Things Megan did right IMHO:
I like the positioning of the exhaust tip. (it certainly doesn't look like it'll ever touch or burn / melt the bumper.)
Finish and welds are nice.
Bolts and gasket included. Packaging was awesome, even got a sticker.
Things that concern me:
The resonator only has ~ 1/2 - 3/4 inch of clearance were the exhaust passes under the passenger side flange on the diff. ( I have no idea what the clearance is on a stock exhaust and cannot remember what the clearance was on my HKS.)
The ~ 1/2 to 3/4 inch clearance were the exhaust passes under the rear subframe.
Note: My car is on jackstand but IMO this should not change the clearance these parts will have w/ each other once the car is on the ground.
On a personal note, I have never been a fan of large cans or even worse, large tips which this exhaust has both of. When compared w/ my dual HKS it's only a bit larger in both respects. For less than $300 I'll deal w/ this while my HKS gets some work done to it. I've always wanted to try a single anyway and the price is / was right.
No, I do NOT have sound clips and will NOT be starting my car anytime soon.
