Is this sale still going on? Sorry I'm new but is the megan racing turbo back really cheap and not good quality? Is that why so inexpensive? Sorry I mean no disrespect?

Still going on (while supplies last) and no disrespect taken. We are not saying this is the best CBE or TBE on the market. We are simply giving the public a cost effective option to gain the subaru sound and power at a fraction of the cost as name brand

Review:
Just got the CBE on my WRX yesterday... Holy crap. I wasn't sure what to expect for the low price, and I was prepared to have to spend a few bucks at an exhaust shop to have it doctored into working order. I had the stock WRX can on the back, and the difference was immediate and incredible. Endless rev-limit donuts at the dirt crossroads never get old.

The welds, workmanship, and quality are astoundingly good. No dings or scratches. The hangers mate up to stock positions and the axle-back bolts up to my TurboXS stealthback midpipe, which was my biggest worry! The included hardware is some pretty great little 17mm head bolts with washers and a pair of respectable gaskets. I can imagine that there's a grandmaster metal-worker and his apprentices somewhere in Vietnam making car components for dirt cheap. Yay, industrial growth!

I'd seen the pics of how close the outlet was to the bumper where people used the stock exhaust hangers, so I ordered a set of Kartboy XLs from JNA along with the exhaust. I got those suckers on there, started up the machine and just grinned for a few hours.

The sound easily ranks among the big brands in terms of quality. None of that hollowness you get from the coffee cans, but loud enough to enjoy a good rip to 7k with the windows down. And like another person said before, there is absolutely no drone and the sound is appropriately toned down inside the cabin. I was looking at figuring out how to get a $500 Maddad axleback or a new H&S shipped from the UK, and man am I glad I didn't. :D

Here are some photos from after a spirited test drive on the dirt roads after a successful, smooth install. ;) (Ignore my dog's tail in the first one... She was pretty excited, too.)

My only complaint is how low the bend in the axleback is. As you can see in the 3rd pic, it's *significantly* lower than the diff for which impact guards are made! I'm going to have to be aware of stumps and holes so I don't crush my pipe and end up with an asthmatic smoker's exhaust note. :D

Alan at JNA Performance gave fast responses to messages and fast shipping. Great service overall. Keep it up!

Well, I got pulled over this morning on the way to work in torrington, CT. As with any traffic stop I shut my car off and wait for the officer to come over before I open the glove box. Asks for the normal shiz, I give it to him. Then he asks me to start the car and rev it to about 2k, I do so and he has this puzzled look on his face. So I explain how I had a different exhaust on (straight pipe) the previous 2 weeks but couldnt take how loud it was (white lie). I told him I installed JNA's exhaust last night and it was soo much better still have all the power yet without the excessive noise. He told me that I was very lucky to be pulled over after the install and tells me there were a few complaints from other Torrington, CT officers about the excessive noise(explains why a few followed me onto the highway the previous days). He then tells me that exhaust is "definately ok" and not anywhere near as bad as the other exhaust. He walks away and checks my record (clean) comes back and tells me to have a nice day!

JNA's exhaust saved me from a costly ticket and a general PITA inspection. Thanks Justin!:disco:
