Default Bought Catback Megan Exhaust

So I am stoked I bought the catback megan exhaust. There seems to be good things out there about it, but not too much for video and hands on experience in the forums from what I could find. I am going to get a video up when I get it installed. The VERY depressing part was that I was emailed and told I had 1-2 weeks wait (a few days ago) since they were waiting on a shipment of some parts. At any rate I am STOKED to get this installed when I get it and will post video when I can!

there was like 1 or 2 videos on youtube of the exhaust. i loved the sound of it. i think it was one of the better sounding exhausts out there compared to other 2IS exhausts. we need more megan owners to do videos of this exhaust!!

and congrats on your exhaust purchase!. ;-)

I am super stoked to see how this sounds on my 350, with the f-sport intake. I am bummed I am waiting for it to be shipped! That thing will be put on the second it arrives!

That does sound good and up to this point the only ones I have really seen are the two that are on YouTube from like 4 year ago when the exhaust was first being tested or whatever.

You do no your not getting a catback exhaust, your getting an axel back exhaust just to clarify it for you.

nah, they have the full catback versions that come with the midpipe.

http://www.meganracing.com/product_d...d=200&catid=15

IMO, i think megan has the better midpipe, as compared to invidia.

is it really worth spending hundreds more tho? im not looking to be heard from far away but just want the looks of a new exhaust thats fairly cheap and sounds decent.
