Looking to buy a testpipe, Q's!
Hey guys,
Recently installed my DC Sports system and i'm looking to add a testpipe.
Looking at a few options but i'm not too sure what I should be buying. First off, the nearest tuner is a solid 7 or 8 hr drive for me down into the usa. So I do plan running the Cobb AP by next spring at the latest.
If I was to run the Megan Testpipe, would I have a retardedly loud exhaust system (given there is no res or cat)? Would I throw a cel? and can I run Cobb's Stage II tune, requires 1 cat so i'm guessing no?
Second option is to pay a little bit more money and buy an UR testpipe. But than there's mini muffler / resonator / hfc.
Basically I want a testpipe that isn't too loud, is compatable with Cobb's Stage II and preferably does not throw any codes.
Please help a new owner out!

A tune is probably not going to happen for me for quite sometime, so i'll be running the AP.
I'd need to drive down to Minneapolis.

I have the DC sport catback and the ultimate racing test pipe. The car is a bit loud, but not obnoxious. Also, boost makes the exhaust just roar It sounds simply amazing. The test tipe came with an extended O2 sensor bung. As a result i have not thrown any codes. As for the tune i am not sure as i am running the GST map. Where in canada are you from? If its anywhere near edmonton i could let you hear it.

What UR Testpipe did you go with? hfc? resonator? straight?
Any issues running with the GST basemap?!

Hey Zebra I am in Edmonton and would like to hear your car. As videos on youtube never ever do any sounds justice. After a couple small mods I wanted to just to HFC or Test Pipe and stock exhaust. That's when I can afford the tuning that goes with it heh. Maybe we can hook a time and place. I am not in town this weekend. But I will be there next weekend. I think I am loading my GST 93 Map then also. Gonna order the boost pill and filter here right away.
