Yup MD no longer makes an exhaust for Sedans. I haven't heard great things about the quality of Megan Racing. HKS is nice, but doesn't do much in the way of gains compared to Stillen, Borla, etc.

HKS has got to be good for a few hp though because i dynod within a few hp of an 06 6MT Sedan with the same mods (md spacer and pop charger) on the same day, except he had a Fujitsubo cat back exhaust.

I've heard their test pipes and headers are complete crap, but haven't heard anything bad about the rear section.

Maybe their welds just can't take hot/cold cycles

I would avoid an 8.5 front if you CAN. They are hard to stretch on (unless you don't wanna stretch much and wanna go for a sick flush set up like Candlestickpark)

The rear will be fine, depending on tires. I'd run a spacer up front though, at least a 10mm but I'd do a 20mm. (that's me)

I agree with Blain (4DGS), don't do a 8.5 front. I have an 8.5 front and the tire size I'd like to run is 215/35 for a bit more stretch, but given the height of that tire I'd have to slam my car too much to tuck enough tire which wouldn't give me enough clearance for my low sitting bumper. I have a 225/35 and its taken a bit of work to make everything fit, and I still have some work to do to the side-marker bracket.

^ Yea, when I had the 215/35 I was dumped as **** (before I brought it up) and I wouldn't do it again. My new front wheel is 10" wide lol
