Good to see they revised it. I've had the old model for about six months now and love it. It was way too loud with a header and no cat, so I welded in a Magnaflow hi-flow cat and resonator. It sounds fantastic now.

Oh it'll change alright. It gets "really" loud. It almost hurts your ears it's so loud. It's ok with the silencer in though.

We will have this on our site once the redesign is complete and we reopen which will happen very soon. The price is still TBD but we will be having another GB on the forums here fairly soon.

it is like the HKS but 10x better, this actually is a spipe back, not just an axleback, and for Upscale Automotives GB price they had $280shipped, you seriously cant go wrong. F! HKS

looks nice and for that price I don't think you could get a axle back.

Just to let you guys know, the new price will in fact be greater than $280. That was only a one time thing. We will still try to get you guys a great deal though!

That is a really good buy, I'm very interested. Any dyno numbers for it?

I currently have the megan header and I'm really happy with it..

Lol, I know.... I wish we could do the $280 again, but our new price won't be too bad at all. From what I hear these are selling for elsewhere, we are still going to be the lowest I know of. :D

We took some junky vids last night, we will get more by early next week. The butt dyno says there were some gains, but it hasn't been dyno tested yet and probably won't be by us. After really looking at this I think Megan Racing hit the nail on the head with this exhaust.

The vids aren't up yet, I am going to have them up early next week along with the launch of our redesigned site at http://www.upscaleautomotive.com !!! The new site is going to be great. It is almost finished and many of your Scion needs will be catered to. I do plan on another group buy very soon though. I will make sure and post about it here and on the old GB thread as well on the new site once it launches!
