Megan Racing Catback + Y-Pipe

Alright, so it looks like there is a new Exhaust sticky so I searched through and couldn't find what I was looking for, hopefully someone has this setup. I have the Megan Racing Catback right now and need to get a Y-Pipe, probably either Warpspeed or Budget.

I wanted to know if any 4th gen owner out there had this set up or someone has a video/soundclip of what it sounds like so I can figure out what I want to do as far as exhaust goes.

Thanks

my friend had it on his car, it sounded decent, It got kinda ricey though in the upper rpms. Megan Racings catback alone sounds amazing.

I have the set-up on my car... It ALOT deeper than i thought it was going to be. It doesn't get raspy or farty at higher rpm's. I have a stock cat, and i don't know how much of a difference in sound that would make. I recomend the WS y-pipe, if you want a deep tone. Sorry no vids, i have a cell phone but that wouldnt do it any justice... ill try to get what i can today.

Alright well I just watched your video Max_Out, and I kinda get the general idea but if you can get a better quality video that'd be awesome.

Anyone else have this set up or know videos/soundclips of this setup?

yes a lot. It actually makes the exhaust sound stock but a little bit deeper tone. I was very happy with the quality of the silencer. Only problem I had was that it flew out when I went WOT and had one bolt in. The silencer makes a huge difference but you need to keep an eye out on it to make sure that you don't shoot it out the back of the car.

but the fact that it shoots out means that there is back pressure created by the silencer which is bad right?

This much is true, I almost hit a pickup truck when it shot out. I downshifted and left cause he was riding my ***. and by like 4.5k I just heard it get really loud and looked back and saw the silencer slidding off the side of the road, it was definatley worth it, I gotta find out how much they cost cause I need a new one.

EDIT: I have a clip of my car with the catback and warpspeed y in the exhaust sticky. I'm going to buy a new silencer I'll take a video when I get that on for you supazn

hehehehehe... same thing happened to me right after a cop pulled me over for loud exhaust. I was cruising down the road, and i heard the tone get ALOT louder and looked in the rear view to see a silencer bouncing down the road.

Yeah I'm emailing Megan right now finding out how much it is for a new one and a better way of keeping the silencer on.
