Skunk 2 Mega Power

Hey was just wondering what the general thoughts on the skunk 2 mega power are? I recently bought an EK3 civic and saw a used skunk 2 cat back system done 3000 miles. Is there anything bad about them or are they generally good systems?

Cheers

Re: Skunk 2 Mega Power

Thanks for all the comments really useful. I spoke to a guy at tokyo express store and asked about this skunk 2 system and basically he said. The problem with these exhausts is that as they are desgned for the market in California- where weather is warm all year round, he said in the UK many people have found that due to the machine welding which is relatively thin, in the cold winters the expanding and contracting metal can cause stress fractures?

has anyone experienced this before or heard of it happening?

Thanks all

They look and fit great, they are a bit aggressive on the noise, lets be honest here, there loud as hell!
