750 shipped, also you would suprise how much a bigger ypipe changes the sounds. if you run test pipes, or high flow cats. then the bigger ypipe is the way to go. but since your staying stock you will be fine. but its still loud as hell with stock cats.

I could of saved $5 somewhere lol, but yeah I will be staying with stock cats, and y-pipe for now(out of $$$$). If I do change anything I will probably go to test pipes with resonators tho.

hit up importimagerace on aim to get a sick price on the exhaust with the megan y pipe.

the oem y pipe is not only 15 pounds heavier (or close to it) than the aftermarket megay y, but it is also a 2.25 inlet from the cats and a 2.5 exit to the oem exhaust

the megan is 2.5 inlet at the cats and 3'' at the exit, to mate to the agency power's 3'' piping.

So...you're saying that there is an issue with mating the Agency Power exhaust to the stock y pipe?

no it will fit just fine. the older agency power would not bolt to the stock ypipe but they changed the design years ago

So how does the exhaust fit to the stock 2.5" y-pipe since the exhaust is 3"? Is it bottlenecked down? How does that work?

The fitment of the Agency Power exhaust after this last redesign is actually PERFECT! The flanges and hangers all are in the correct spots and are not problematic at all during the install. From the OEM y pipe which is 2.5 inches it goes to the new mid pipe which is 3 inches (itdoesn't bottleneck, it actually opens up). When the complete exhaust is installed not only is the piping larger but it's also straighter so you get increased flow. This translates to a slight bump in HP but the increased flow is not so much that it hurts torque.

Ok good, now about the sound. Is the sound deep? Does yours produce any rasp being stock?

It is deep...not hemi truck deep but deep down low and when you get on it hard she screams like an effin banshee! No doubt about it, this exhaust is VERY loud. That is a little rasp but not so much. She growls and she also has that sexy sputter like when you get off the gas. I love mine now that I'm used to the loudness of it...hehe.

lol yeah i took a lot of pictures for agency power for the redesign. that way it wouldn't have problems fitting the hr either. i wish they had not of dented the piping. with a stillen ypipe i did not have any issues with it hitting the middle bar. but it should be good. im picking mine up in the morning. i should have a sound clip up tomorrow.

^^^^ lol, I'll let you know if I feel the same way about it.. I surely hope its worth the money I spent on it, like I said this is my first high quality and priced exhaust buy. I hope it dont bite me in the back.

it kinda makes a whining noise when you get on it. i was always asked if i had a turbo on my z when i stomped the gas and took off. but yes it is a beautiful sound and exhaust.

I guess if worse comes to worse I can always just buy a 4.5" silencer to put in the tip of it.

Default Agency Exhaust

Hey guys, pretty new here posting, but thought you guys should know that I ordered mine directly through Agency and took them only 4 business days to deliver, I tucked the bumper so it looks even better from the side, anywhere I go I get comps. on the awsome sound, and she opens up on high RPM's best exhaust I have had.

My ap is on. Again! Haha. Picked up @ 8am at fedex. Fitment is great. Fits the hr nicely. Sound is top notch just like the later. I will get video clips up as soon as I get someone over to hold the camera when I drive.
