lol i dont have a megan exhaust, i have ZPI lol, but hopupracing is a good site to buy from...if you want my opinion...from experience...i tested the HKS hi-power exhaust and I loved everything about it..how it looked and sounded.....so id say go with an HKS....and get it through killertc.com, they are crazy fast with shipping and greg and the boys at GSCmotorsports are awesome people..

IMHO, get whatever you like. There really isn't much difference in gains between axel-back or cat-back systems. What is a couple horsepower?

got it at the the beginning of the summer, no problems so far, but honestly, i don't think you can have many problems with exhausts, they're just a bunch of pipes and as long as the bolts don't come loose then you'll be fine.

Remember though that the exhausts aren't just 1 solid pipe. Its a bunch of pipes held together by clamps, welds, and bolts. You might run across an exhaust that is just poorly made. After sometime the welds might start to break, the exhaust might develop a lot of rust and start to crumble. I've run across one of those before. So you get what you pay for. IMO, cheaper the exhaust is means you have a higher risk of it being poorly made.

from what i've seen even the cheaper exhausts are usually stainless steel. honestly, if i were to buy again i'd probably go with the number one catback, it's $152 shipped.

That one is practically the same as the Tsudo N1 isn't it? Personally I prefer the exhausts that don't look like coffee cans. Magnaflow, Borla, Greddy SP2, etc.
