I partialy agree I don't think its the exhaust that does increase the power but the pipe that bends up over the axel is the major cuperit in power loss it is a small non-mandrel bent pipe that totaly restricts the flow. I have the megan setup and I love it it's not too loud but deffinatly noticable and yes I did get a signifigent power gain. I read someone else had fitment issues which I also had however they were slight and easily resolved issue 1: one of the flanges didn't line up fix: heated it up and bent it to fit, issue 2: banging resolved by having a hanger welded onto where the pipe crosses to the passengers side this stopped the pipe from shifting side to side and banging into the factory hanger post, issue 3: leaks fixed by replacing their sh*** gaskets with heavy duty gaskets. All in all I would definatly recomend the megan catback in total it cost me $490 shipped and installed with the second hanger I believe that the cost of the system is comperable to using a universal muffler with custom bent piping. However it is not an easy product to get it took me over a month before I got mine but it was worth the wait. Here is a sound clip and sorry for the long post but I hope it helps you out.

BTW reving this exhaust does it no justice it sounds 10x better on the road

Here is the cheapest place to get it + free shipping be prepared to wait for it but it's well worth it
