I could find better things to spend my money on my car, but your money is your money. I still haven't gotten a header or cat-back.... not really planning to... I hate the sound on a daily driver... ever driven 1200 miles straight at 3k rpm with an exhaust? AhhhH!

Good job w/ the Megan for a decent cheap brand. I had an OBX header and it was a royal piece of junk. Exhaust leaks like crazy.

As for the exhaust, make sure you dont get a ticket for it being to loud. I am assuming its going to be pretty loud so you may want to look into a silencer.

In IL ANY modified exhaust is illegal. So even though my Apexi WS2 is quiet and 50 state legal I could still get a ticket. But they just bother the guys w/ the fart cans. And it irritates me b/c Harelys and trucks w/ straight pipes never get harassed.

i know whta you mean. you can hear harleys from 3 miles away. and stressing the paint is just taking sand paper to the paint in a couple places to make it look like junk then you put clear cote over it. and no one would guess it was fast. what should i do to make it faster after i get the headers and exhaust? i just put my intake in last weekend and it sounds so much better.
