Got My Exhaust In Today!!!!!

[got_no_sol]

Ok so I'm not sure if this is the right section to put this in, but here goes anyways.

So I bought the megan racing dp and muffler and a catco cat.

When installing the dp, I also swapped over the o2 housing from my jdm engine but because where the dp bolts to the o2 housing has a slightly different angle.

I had to have the local muffler shop cut and weld the dp to make it fit right. Had I used the right o2 housing the dp would have worked (buddy put one on has talon in the last week).



Overall it's about 3 inches all the back with a few crush bends (i know i know)

I would highly recommend all the parts I bought, I spent 255$ on the physical parts and 230 on the install, so under 500 for a 3 inch turbo back exhaust isn't bad at all.

As far as the SQ goes, It is loud! It has a nice medium to deep sound but honestly I wasn't expecting it to be so loud.

As far as power increase, I can DEFINITELY feel the power increase (mods are 16g turbo, that's it). Spool time is better and the car feels quite a bit faster. The turbo power doesn't fall off as much as it did before...

I love the sound but I hope it doesn't get annoying.



If anyone wants any more info, let me know. I can take pics or whatever

$230 to install O2 housing, DP, and exhaust! That's only a 2 hr job max including your welding. So at your rate, your mechanic was charging you $115/hr!!

damn 230 is alot for just an exhaust system install.. i got mine installed for 80 bucks (o2 to the catback)

actually the guy cut me a good deal...

It took 3 hours to do because the dp didn't fit right.. as I mentioned above.

They had to chop the dp and do the crush bending and and install an o2 sensor bung among other things....

And I didn't have anything but the dp, muffler and cat....

It should have cost me close to 350 after everything they did, but he only charged me 230 so I'm content.

Here are some pics anyways.....

ok so the pics ain't working - I'll get em up later....
