Default Megan header, new design

I was wondering if anyone has heard more information about the new megan header coming out? Megan informed me they will be replacing my old header for no cost once they finish it. I believe it was suppose to be done in mid-June but I haven't heard anything from them.

In other related news, my CEL isn't coming on anymore, all of a sudden it just stopped (about 800 miles now).. maybe the pre-cat shooting out was a good thing?

Really, how did you get your hands on it already? I'm probably getting the one with the cat, cause I want to keep it as quiet as possible.

I think you are misreading that. He said:

If you reread the previous post, there were two new beta releases: 1 with a precat, and 1 without a precat. As I read it, the one he has, no cat, makes 10HP more than the beta release *with* the cat.

Clearly, if that is what calvin meant, he wasn't talking about whp.

post a message in your regional forum, asking if anyone has the knowledge/skills/desire to help you. A friend of mine here put such a post in the Mid Atl forum, and she got someone to help her do her leather seats install.

If the new ones are goin to be more powerful, i will trade it. I got mine thru creativecompacts.com, so would i get it replaced thru them or thru meganracing??

OR, if since mine has no cat now, does that give it more power, and i should just leave it??
So for the stupid Q'S.

those new megan headers you have.. are they loud? is your exhaust raspy? i'm highly interested in a set of headers and waiting to hear more reviews from you for the Megan Racing one.
