I have the 30th, so I'm going to recommend the 30th!

The only thing that sucks about the HKS exhausts is the taper. But it's definitely not a restriction as many people have made good power with it.

Thanks for the kind words Wilson. :) One of the big deciding factors for me when I bought my exhaust was the tone. After attending my first NCE meet, the HKS exhaust note stood out to me the most.

You can put your ear up to my exhaust and hear some tone at the EIP meet if you want. :shock: :lol:

btw, if you want a killer Bang for buck ratio, check out the Megan full turboback (with high flow cat) for only $593, http://www.ttp-engineering.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=26&products_id=29

full 3" all the way, Robotic TIG welds, 1yr warranty, full stainless steel, etc. Good enough for 11.7@118mph on the stock 05 turbo so far. (with testpipe)

I have no affliation with TTP or Megan but that is a killer deal.

I rode with Mark all day at Thunderhill, the HKS 30th is not very loud but still sounds great.

I wondered if it would fit a 05, 06 MR?

According to TTP, who run it on their 05 MR, it does.

i didn't read the whole post but I got heated when Al made a comment on the first page about POS products from another country. I know my post over there on Evom is going to get deleted but Al just went down about 200 billion notches in my book.

I have the Megan TBE exhaust on my 05 Evo. I got in on the group buy. However, it came with a resonated test pipe. W/ the Test pipe, it was a little too loud for my taste along w/ the smell. I replaced the Test Pipe w/ a Helix HFC, and no problems so far. It's much quieter now. Very pleased w/ the fit/finish and quality esp. for the price. I'll prolly be at the Evo meet as well so you can hear it if you'd like.

Haha, I made a post on that thread... He just got really crazy about it. I didn't like his ranting about everything from another country was bad.

Same thing happened in this one thread about Coilovers:

Everyone from Warrtalon to vendors jumped in on him and the guy got banned. I really wonder where these guys pop out from...

According to TTP, who run it on their 05 MR, it does.

The megan downpipe didn't fit my 06 MR.

Espelier fits great, but is 70mm.

Interesting.

I also run the Espelier DP. 2.75" inch. I don't think it is a bottleneck so far. 8)
