Default 08 Civic Si Coupe Skunk 2 Exhaust Question

Im getting a 08 civic si this weekend and when I get it, im getting a CAI or SRI and a skunk 2 catback. I want to get the megapower r exhaust, but does anyone know where I can get it the cheapest. Does anyone have a coupon to a online store or something where it can be cheaper. Im just trying to save as much money as I can.

If you want one cheap just buy a used one, check out 8ths market place. Have you heard what that exhaust sounds like? For what you're going to pay there are much better options. I mean that from a looks, sound and quality standpoint.

Skunk2 is stupid loud IMO, full-race 3in or another 3in exhaust with a real muffler would be a wiser choice. Unless you enjoy annoying the popo

if you ACTUALLY plan on going turbo, go with the megapower rr or go power because the 2.75" megapower r will hold you back.

if you will most likely stay NA go with megapower r WITH alpha header (might as well do exhaust right the first time).

Cheaper alternative to Skunk2 is Tsudo N1 exhaust. $270 exhaust same as skunk2 minus paying for the name. nice deep tone too but may make your ears bleed at wot.

I have listened to a couple different systems and I would have to agree the full race exhaust sounds awesome compared to the others I have heard.
