Got a great deal and they may still have an ad in the sponsered sales link for the same deal. It is a little rougher idling on a cold morning, but all in all I'm very pleased. Butt dyno can't tell a tremendous difference, but I'm sure it helped considering how funky the stocker is.
How much??? less than $125 with shipping? what?

It was around $140 shipped. I don't remeber for sure cuz I packaged it with a couple other parts. Forgot to mention, there is a touch of rasp at mid-RPM's and I still have stock header. Nothing honda-ish though.

Had to bump this up because I'm in the market for (finally) upgrading my exhaust system (currently have only the PrecisionMuffler axelback exhaust). Been wanting a little more power and I don't think I'm gonna afford F/I right now.

I'm probably gonna pick up the Megan header, but I have a feeling that I might have to pick up the Megan s-pipe and get a high-flow cat and a 30" resonator to combat the rasp. Am I correct?

I have a feeling that the Megan s-pipe would be ideal since it was made to fit with the Megan header. I haven't found a lot of reviews on the Megan s-pipe, so is it that bad/good?

^ haha
ill bump it up, cuz i have questions on the spipe too
i have the greddy turbo and precison muffler dual exhaust, just curious as to the megan s pipe as well. i imagine id need a new mid pipe w/ a resonator to keep the mustang sound away, am i assuming right? my wife will beat me if my car gets to loud, and i dont want loud either, dont want to take away from the fun noises coming from the hood :D

The invidia is 60mm (2.36"), the zpi is 2.5". 60mm is better actually unless you are going F/I, you don't loose torque. Megan is 2.25" i think but could be wrong

sorry for the unrelated question on my setup, just wondering =]

btw, heard good things about invidia, hoping it turns out as great as i hear =]
i just purchased the invidia s-pipe =]

i read from moneypit's earlier post, it has rasping sound...

im currently thinking, about this setup, will the rasp get worse? and/or noticeable?

injen cai
megan headers
invidia s-pipe
greddy sp2 exhaust w/ axelback << i read it was tamest one...

currently thinking about a 30'' resonator/midpipe
[is that a necessity? will it even help much?]

im currently using this as my dailydriver, and loud noises pester me, especially rasp X_X

so my question is, is my setup, gonna kill me in the long run?
big difference from my current OEM sound?

I havent heard sp2 with headers but as with any exhaust, you should definitely get that resonator. You will have rasp no matter what when you take out the stock manifold.
