Keep in mind that this review is for the 6MT! I would believe its annoying for the automatic version, but then again most exhaust are in my opinion

Put them on before you tune. at least someone shares my pain on shipping to the Caribbean. I'm located in the Virgin Islands.
Shipping is a pain to the caribbean neighbor but I do love my weather! I see you are from Saint thomas! Been there, great island!

I've been rocking it for over a year now.....I love it. I mixed mine with a set of GTM resonated test pipes, and love the sound, and no CEL and have yet to get a tune

I have one too. Pretty much the only reason I got it was because I found one in the FS section on here for $300. I thought I'd be stupid not to buy this. Sounds great with my CAI. Plan on getting HFC in the near future.

How the smell? Is it livable? Little rasp?

Dont know if I should go with test pipes or HFC

I have the Magnaflow catback on my 08 as well, along with a Fujita intake. At certain RPM ranges, there's drone. There's also rasp *sometimes*. I bought the car with the exhaust already on it, and wondering if i'll lose any power if I go back to a stock catback. Any opinions?

i have very slight rasp between 2.5-3k under medium to heavy throttle when cold only. once everything is hot the rasp goes away almost completely. but my current setup has no resonators. i am hoping the 12" resonators i'll be adding soon will help the cold rasp.

Yes, but you have a sedan. Please specify it when you comment so people dont get confused. The COUPE version has resonators and there is no rasp what so ever with stock cats.

I have stock cats on an 08 coupe, absolutely no exhaust leak, and I have rasp. Resonators are in place. Completely unmodified Magnaflow catback.

Finally made a short clip of the exhaust so you guys could get an idea of how it sounds.
