Megan Racing Exhaust?

I started out with this exhaust and it worked great for the price. Only reason I still don't have it is I did some custom exhaust work and fabricated up my own piping. Still using the muffler though. love the sound really deep raspy tone. Remove that silencer and get rid of it LOL.

It is just a cat back from what I can tell.

Here is a link to a really nice down pipe to complete the system. http://www.punishment-racing.com/punishment-racing-3-downpipe-for-eclipse-talon/

jpm its all good man.. i forgot that some states do emissions....think maybe i should just buy a tip and take it to a muffler shop?
 
I had a megan turbo back exhaust, sounded decent, sold it all except the muffler, had a shop fab up a full 3" turbo back with very few bends, and kept the muffler, sounds pretty mean, I get old school V8 guys complimenting the sound. The custom exhaust was less than $400 Cndn. Look into a muffler shop first, you'd be surprised the kind of deals they can swing.
 
I have this system and it sounds and looks awesome. I have a full turbo back exhaust. But when needed for smog, i swap my dp out for the stock one with the cat. As far as a muffler shop goes, it would be a great idea, just youre gonna pay a couple hundred dollars for the muffler then another couple hundred for the piping, if 3 inch probably more at least it is around my area. In the end youd pay the same. Honestly i think the megan racing exhaust is better quality and is all mandrel bent so no kinks in the system, not sure how well muffler shops can do it like that.

Edit : not sure why its so cheap for you guys at the shops, around here the guy wanted like 500 to do mine plus me buy the tip. I was trying to go cheap, but it was gonna cost more in the long run. And this guy does exhaust work for diesels!! Op, i would call muffler shops first and see what they would charge for some work like that before buying anything.
 
I have the same exhaust on my car, paid $170 shipped off ebay a few years back. Sounds great but without the silencer in its louder than no exhaust or any of my friends 3"

How can it possibly be louder than no exhaust?

I have the same exhaust and it's honestly not that loud compared to some 3" exhausts I've heard.

You also have to take into account the size of the turbo you have makes a difference on how loud the exhaust is.

I bought my megan racing muffler off ebay for $79 shipped, then a local exhaust shop charged me $307 for turbo back and that included a high performance flex section

Honestly I have no idea but I had my car beside my friends with no exhaust and you could hear mine over his, that includes idle and a 6k launch through 3rd gear. Maybe somethings different about mine????
