    yea the megan is a decent piece and for a good price. plus if ur gonna boost it later (guessing turbo?) no sense in buying a $$$ header if its gonna get replaced. if u s/c ur car then gettin a $$$$ header might be a good idea to get the most of out of ur setup

    pretty sure that megan only makes a race header for the type-s. In order to run it you would need a type-s midpipe

    correct but its pretty easy to mod the midpipe. btw, i just installed a buddy club race header a lil while ago and the gains were AWESOME! im gettin a dyno soon and it will compare the jrrh i used to have to my new buddy club rh

    dyno

    I might be at the dyno within a couple of weeks with:

    -Injen MR Short Ram
    -DCRH
    -Apexi Catback

    Did you guys dyno with your engine check light on or off?

    If I use an o2 sensor adapter, my car's air is stablized and power is evenly distributed throughout the rpm meaning no low or high end.

    A top end header built specifically with a SC in mind, will be better than any of those cheap headers(both with and without the SC) and will really blow them away with the SC. But with you being in Cali, are you ready for the headaches that come with mods?
