Whats a better exhaust, Megan Racing or Obx?
Please do not get on here and tell me I should get a Greddy or something like that because I am trying to keep a budget and both of these exhaust systems are around the same price. I like the way the Megan Racing exhaust looks better but I want to hear some reviews before I purchase either one.

What tip style do you all have. I want the type B but everyone seems to have the type h, I hope that it doesnt mean that the type B isnt good.

You can't get the "greddy type" OBX that was the one to have. I've given up on buying a catback...I'm going to get a custom exhaust done.

At the CT meet the other day most of the guys there had OBXes..they sounded nice, but nothing like the guy who had the custom duals (i forget his name, sorry) I went to a muffler shop today, and they quoted me 500 for a stainless mandrel bent 3" back system with RT cat, and 3" flowmaster. It went down to around 300 for 2.5 inch piping, stock cat, and different flowmaster muffler...

why would you get a 3" exhaust?
Unless you are running FI 3" exhaust...

it has a slight whistle but it sounds a bit deeper in person.. when driving though it sounds nice combined with the intake. at idle it purrs
