Exhaust Options - Page 2

thats what I thought, i dont know what the hell they read when I sent them the email..lol Well I have to look into it some more.

hey Emonz I would like your opinion since you have the megan TBE, I have heard all your vids but how loud is the exhaust compared to the stock exhaust??? I know Its gotta be alot louder obviously because your running catless but is it obnoxioux loud??? I mean can you drive and not get annoyed on how loud it is?? If I were to buy the resonator how much do you think it will reduce the sound?? I am thinking that I will just take the shell of my cat when it comes off and weld it to the exhaust to make it look legal. Also emonz what did you do to fix the chekc engine light when you change the exhaust? did you have to buy mil eliminators?? Did the exhaust kit come with everything needed and didnt throw a check engine light?? Sorry again for all the questions its just that this is the exhuast I want, I just wanna make sure i dont run into any problems.

The Megan exhaust is very loud after getting a tune.  It is not annoying at all when just cruising it is not loud it does vibrate interior you hardly notice it.  But under full boost it opens up and SCREAMs

Here is what I did for the engine light,  TheEngineer did this write up it is all picutes of my car so this is not a borrowed write up.  this is one did

I dont thing the shell of you cat is going to do any good. cuase emmisions test will still fail

thanks emonz for the info

ok so I got an email back from zeus about the megan exhaust system, from what he told me is that the megan system currently doesnt have a highflow cat avilable for it, well that really blows because I really had my mind made up about getting it. Well next option is either look for another setup that has a high flow cat availible or just buy a cat back system, are there any benifits to getting the catback or is it just a waste of money?? I know the best performance would come from a full turbo back but I kinda cant dish out over a grand for an exhaust system.

Zues did tell me to contact a this one guy and ask him but I dont think I wanna be buying parts from different brands and having fitment problems when im ready to install the stuff.

cat back will get you some power but not what a TBE will.  I would just buy th TBE from megan and then have a exhaust muffler shop cutom make a hi flow to fit.  I already tossed that idea around for mine and  was quoted $60 to have one made for my exhaust

Yeah I was thinking that to but then i was thinking that by cutting into the stainless steel then welding on a high flow cat mess with the stainless stell and cause it to rust???

they shouldnt need to cut your exhaust.  they should just make one fit to what you have.  but even so you should be fine as long as the welds are good
