Megan OE RS for Canadians!

Ordered a Megan cat back OE RS from http://www.teknotik.com/home.php last Thursday, it arrived at work either late Wednesday or early Thrusday this week. $450CDN plus taxes and shipping. $548CDN all in. He figured about 5 days to get it up from the states, and then whatever to ship it to me from Toronto. He said he'd send an email for tracking when it was shipped from him....it arrived before the email was sent! Great customer service, and email payments accepted too.

Will install today.

Definately looks like a quality piece. Resonator looks a bit on the small side though. I'm in the process of ordering one for myself, just waiting on the vender to get back to me.

The local parts yutz was all against me ordering it, as, in his words, "it won't be real stainless, beware of the "off shore stuff", blah, blah"...but naturally offered no alternative except getting a local guy to custom make one, which is fine, and he'll even do it in stainless...but he doesn't properly weld the stainless, so it'll rust at the seams.
The reason I'll getting this is because of rust!

Didn't install today, I'll take a swing at it tommorow, and see how many things break off. At the least, the out of the box "eyeball" quality is VERY good. Plenty off "oohs and ahhs" from the lads at work. Seems to be an excellent value, and super FAST delivery by Teknotik and Megan.

In!
Naturaly, the studs in the cat were the bear. Grinding them off flush with a zip-cut wheel, and then drilling them out to 3/8"' was a fight, but I got it done, and then bolted everything back up.

Just lovely sound now....tips look fantastic too!
