I look forward to your reviews. Thanks Dustin
I've added a review but can't find it. Even the link isn't working today.

FWIW the exhaust is still available via megan. i know they are still in business but, maybe no longer a NAM vendor so maybe they removed their review page? danny at minicorsa in van nuys just ordered and received mine and it will be installed next saturday. 7 days and counting...

I thought I'd revive this thread since I purchased this system and installed it just this evening.

If you are looking for a good price on it, go to...

www.2nrparts.com

I got it for $350 including shipping to IN from CA. For some reason, an $18 "referral discount" mysteriously appeared in my shopping cart making it just a little cheaper than I first thought.

Anyway, the system is very well made and looks great...was VERY impressed with the quality. It's a tad on the loud side, but I'm thinking I'll get used to it over time. It could be that I'm just getting old too, but we won't go there. Loudness aside, the tone is great with lots of that so-called "burble". Can't beat it for the price. Highly recommend .

I recently covered the boot area and back seat area with a sound deading material and it made a big difference on how loud the exhaust is inside the car. Had mine about 1 year now and still love it.. Was a touch loud, but now near perfect.

Hey, great idea. What kind of material did you use? Did you just pull the carpet area up and put it underneath that area?

I got some off ebay. Local electronic stores will have Dynamat which is a popular name brand, I used an off brand as my thinking was there can only be so many ways to make the stuff. Have heard there is something at Lowe's and Home Depot you can use but not sure what. I did the floor of the boot, over the hump into the back seat area and down to the floorboard. I didn't do the floor board as I was running out of material. Used 4-1/2 pieces of 18'' x 36'' material
