I've been checking the thread every chance I get in the 3GS forum. So far they're working on getting somebody to donate their car to make sure it'll fit.

I'll be running stocks mufflers with the pipe.

i have been talking with chris. i have a friend with one but he has not answered his phone. i dont get why it is so hard to get some one to do it when you end up with a free test pipe!

That's good to know.
HKS is cool when your driving alone. But when you have people in the car it gets annoying. I'm gonna sell my HKS soon. And get Greddy.

I get mini the backfires as well. Sometimes they're not so mini! I have the midpipe paired up with a tanabe exhaust. I also had an hks hi-power exhaust installed first with the midpipe and got the popping/mini backfires too. I ran the hks exhaust with and without the silencers as well. I'm wondering if the popping/mini backfires occur due to the secondary cats being removed. Does this happen with the megan midpipe?
