I'm trying to make it actually look clean now, lol.

Strup - well its $150 more than the megan, wondering if how well it performs.
DME - about same $ as above, couldnt find much info on this one
alphawerks - discontinued, bah

main thing im concerned with is fitment issues. so far all i have is megan racing s-pipe, midpipe and their oe-rs axleback. the midpipe is having an Aero AR25 welded in place of the small resonator already on it so i shouldnt have loudness/rasp.


p.s. around what time are you guys headed to the show on sunday?
i guess the only one there thats your option is the megan or strup... havent heard to much about the strup but supposedly they are good and better then the megan... i would say go mmw or alpha but they are both hard to find or afford.. i had the mmw ..loved it and hated it ALOT lol.. but now im on an alpha works.. still havent put it to the test yet..
yeah ive been looking for an alphawerks but i probably wont find one. i was leaning towards the megan since i have the rest of the pieces, but i'm doing a little research on the Strup and DME, both are priced about the same.

hey julian/pete, what downsides did you have with your MMW header/s-pipe? bad fitment issues?

also, is the second 02 bung in the MMW s-pipe in the same location as the stock one?

Show at miramar was pretty good. Met up with Joe there, accidentally. Guille arrived later

3 evos, lambo, really sick s2000, two 350z, sickkkk escalade, two magnums, some civics and integras, 4 TCs, a tibby, thats all I can remember.

Lots of lights, strobes, an evo w/ a cheesy wing that looked reversed (although it did have a nice EL manifold), a magnum w/ suicide doors and stick on side vents (had nice huge heavy rims, they did look chromy ^^)

There were some nice, clean looking cars there overall.

I can't wait for sundays show, wooot!

There was some fitment issues but its just a matter of lining everything up. With some patience it lines up good. And yea, the o2 bung on the spipe is on the stock position. I may be taking off my header after the dyno tom. But it isn't for sure yet.



Denny, yea 12:30 tomorrow

i suggest that anyone not dynoing their car to carpool with the ppl that ARE, because there's no real space there to have a bunch of tc's just parked around the area and not getting anything done to them.
