The greddy is indeed very light. I think I'm going to take the plunge and go for one.

ST,

The support is why I got roped into this. I was tired of vendors who "sale and forget"... and as they say, "if you want something done right..."

Granted, we have some great vendors here... I just wanted to put my own spin on it.

Zeus - you're one of the main reasons I would give the thumbs up to Megan Racing!

Zeus, do you only sell Megan parts for EVOs or other cars as well, such as DSMs.

I have the older Buschur racing turboback. Doesnt sound any louder than my old RS-R, greddy DP, gutted cat on my old SR20 240, but friend said it about blew his ear drums driving by him and he used to have a straight piped Mazdaspeed Miata (if you want to hear a 4 cylinder that sounds meaner than any V8 straight pipe one of those... Too loud...)

excellent choice for the money.. I have heard many locals with different systems and i love the non-rice sound of it.... it dont gargle like a boat when at low rpms, and at wot it sounds amazing to...

sound clips availabe upon request for people interested

I took the money that I saved on the full Helix exhaust and spent it on getting the whole thing V-band clamped. Doing that gave me the chance to get rid of any fitment issues and leaks. I think the Helix is quite loud at WOT and it does tend to drone at highway speeds, but I'm not complaining -- I didn't buy a Lexus.
