Mmmmmm, goodness!! :ylsuper <--- That's the short version.
The second thing that comes to mind my mind is, "Too much exhaust for a street car."
On the way home from the shop, I had to be careful to not fly past the 40mph speed limit during second gear acceleration. With the exhaust on the car, third gear is more than enough for 55-65mph cruising, at about 3-4000 RPM. I'll probably end up putting the baffle back in for street driving.
The construction on the exhaust is top notch. The canister welds were of the best hand done kind, that no bead welding machine could produce. The ground clearance, even with my wanna be, drifter suspension setup, is superb. I'll get some pictures posted up tomorrow, when the light is better.
Now I just need to get the thing painted / powder coated / something, matte black to reduce the bling-blingin, pull me over / jack my car factor.

So you got your exhaust system from Meagan Racing for $260?

Don't be so quick to judge, I bought my 5zigen rocket 3" exhaust from jspec for $200. :ylsuper
Update:
A bunch of people have been asking me lately how loud this exhaust is. The honest answer is FREAKIN LOUD.
At normal cruising, it chirps car alarms on the way past. A girl I've been seeing just told me the other day, "I knew you were almost here, because I heard your car up the street."
With the silencer in, it is quiet. Yet if you are going to choke the exhaust with a silencer, why get a 3 inch exhaust in the first place?

I have the earlier version of it before it was Megan Racing. I got the full catback stainless 3" and it's pretty good. Some say its loud, but not an annoying loud. At cruising speeds it hums, and when accelerating, it is very deep and throaty. I had it before I did my swap, and with the ka, it was extremely loud and high pitched. On the SR, I get a lot of "that's nice sounding exhaust!" comments. I purchased mine about a year ago on ebay for $300 shipped.
