Default Megan Racing full exhaust?

I am thinking of running a full Megan racing exhaust system which consists of Megan headers, Megan resonated test pipes, Megan y-pipe and then their exhaust muffler. Is there anyone here who runs this setup?
Any opinions?

The aps 3 in was more for a twin turbo kit and I am now planing on a supercharger kit. And I heard the aps has small fitment problems and because it Is baised out of australia it is hard to recive replacement parts from them so I decided to continue researching exhausts.. But if I am lead back to the aps mabye than that would be the way to go.

Tony has the MR exhaust, sounds sweet! Listen to it on our next meet.

I dunno about their headers...Get their T/P and maybe their Y-pipe. They are none moving parts and as long as fitment is good they seem ok for the price. The only reason i'm not too sure about their headers is that its PITA to install so if it were to crack you will just have a headache.

Also their Y-pipe seems like the NISMO, take a close look when you install on how tight the fitment is (length wise). This would cause the T/Ps to crack as well.

Just bought a Z and it has the Megan test pipes & dual exhaust already installed. I am removing because it is way to loud for my taste. It fits nice and looks like it is pretty well made. If you like it loud then this is your setup.

Really! wow that seems like a ton of headaches ... Do you have any sound clips that I could listen to? also when your parts broke you said you had warrente, did megan replace them with no cost to you?

I put the OBX on this sat...and bit confused on how the a 3" catback is now quieter than my stock catback??? LOL

My setup right now is STRUP TP -> HR Y-pip -> OBX full 3" catback

The sound is deeper, retains stock exhaust note but now inside the cabin is a lot quieter....
