hahaha, i think you have very conflicting views, why not just wait and go for a good one on the good one on the list?

haha. that would be the logical thing to do, but having the most expensive thing isn't very important to me. I just want to put something in there. and since I don't NEED the expensive one, I'd rather save some money and buy something else too.


like HIDs. need those

The OP got a megan header which is better than an ebay header..which isn't saying a whole lot..if he really wanted a header the ONLY good one IMO is the MMW and I've heard good things about DME

btw..a silver RS2?

Megan header is not too bad.......take some2000grit wet sand paper,then 0000 steel wool and clean it up good and clean and then polish it and then clean with alcohol and you will have a nice new looking header.just be ready for lawnmower on crack sound till resonator or resonators are installed.......
