so the megan racing exhaust is a header back system? I saw the pics of it on ebay and it looked like it included a midpipe but i wasnt sure. I may have changed my mind from the agency power to megan.

Correct. Both are from the header back, not including the header which seems to be the misunderstanding.

I don't know Turbo XS is telling me they have a new and improved exhaust...but no definitive answers as to what is changed.

If it helps deciding the Megan and Agency Power use the same muffler type, so you can expect a similiar sound from the Megan. The only difference is the AP is Dual resonated so you will see a slight difference in noise level.

Let me know I can get either for you.

The Pricing I have for the Turbo XS includes the Race Pipe as well, it just isn't pictured.

The Turbo XS is way heavier the catback alone IIRC was 45lbs and then the midpipe was another 15lbs.

Where as the AP which is comparable to the Megan, is 50 lbs with the midpipe.

i love my turboxs, my only real complaint is weight.

the catback is heavier than stock, but catless pipe is lighter than the oem cat. so you dont gain any weight, i think. but you dont shed any either.

i have the megan racing exhaust waited for it on backorder since january 20th, they didnt come with a hardwear kit. exhaust it very very loud. i had a highflow cat welded into the mid pipe. i couldnt take how bad it smelled. also i had the o2 sensor bung moved because megan puts it at the worst angle ever.
