i absolutly love my skunk2 mega power loud as fuck, but still deep. doesnt drone on the highway. im also running a dc raceheader no cat. and either stock modded airbox or k&n short ram.

I love my Skunk2 mega power r 70mm, sound his deep, loud, and no drone. I'm dropped on racelands and couldn't pull in my drive with the exhaust. Had to raise the coils a little for better clearance, but still scraps a little, but i don't mind.

definetly post up a nice in car and out of car sound clip... i can add it to the Stickied exhaust thread.

make sure there is no background noise, no stereo on etc...make sure its only the exhuast..a nice quiet area to record :)

I like mine but it was to quiet so i removed the resonator. I have videos but you cant hear it over my dumptube, and no theres no drone at all on it.

im looking on getting the skunk2 exhaust too, i just have the stock k20a3 with kandn intake. I was wondering since there is 2 skunk2 exhaust systems the megapower and the megapower R. My question is im pretty sure that the R has the 70mm tubing will i loose backpressure causing me to loose hp? What you guys think?!

Doesn't matter with either Megapower because you will gain small HP but lose lots of low end torque unless if you go turbo or SC. These N1 style (fart cans like what talonxracer says) sacrafices too much low end torque.

More info needed. What part # exhaust did you get? Maybe you accidentally bought the one made for the RSX Type S... How exactly isn't it connecting?

Well the stock cat is setup to bolt up to the stock 1.75 exhaust and the skunk 2 magapower r bolted up to my 2.5 testpipe just fine so im guessing your going to have to go to an exhaust shop and either have a larger flange added or have them make a testpipe for you.

time to put the stock exhaust back, get the right flange for it to bolt up too or get a raceheader...why would you ever get a 70mm exhaust without a raceheader in the first place
