Hey guys I finally got the money together for a TBE.
Its a Megan 3" Catless Bellmouth, Heatwrapped:

With a Autospeed 3" "CBE" (no cat, just a "glasspack").

CANT WAIT to get this on! Just ordered the Grimmspeed 12 layer DP to Midpipe gasket. Then I just need the Turbo to DP gasket, and I can just get the stock one from the dealer right?

I love the look of the muffler, I'm not a big fan of the can look but they sound good (some, on the right car). I might get my muffler gutted if I want it even louder :D

Yes, you can get the gasket from the dealer. Post up a sound clip when it's all done! I love the twin-tip, wish I had spent more time looking for one when I got my exhaust done.

yea, your car is freakin SEXY though. I'm going to post a video of DP only, and full exhaust when its on. Cuz I'm putting the DP on myself and driving to the muffler shop to get the "CBE" Extended. Hopefully will be on by the end of next week.

Very nice Matt. Can't wait to see the finished product :). I like the heatwrap too. Where'd you pick it up at?

I actually bought the DP the way it sits. I was planning on heatwrapping it anyways but yea. Doesn't heat wrap come in a white-ish color? I think he spray painted the Heatwrap/clamps black, and it smells like something is burning/ smoked alot at first. Seems to be going away though now.

BTW: Got the DP and MP on and OMG..... sounds SOOOOO freaking mean!!! its loud as all hell dont get me wrong, but I love the sound. I hit 10-11 psi just from installing the exhaust thats how damn restrictive it is! I have nothing else done performance-wise yet. I couldn't believe it was THAT restrictive. Getting the exhaust extended/ Axel-Back out on within the next few days. Should sound alot cleaner/ and at least reasonably quiter :D

I wish I could have gotten a video of just the DP and MP, I might take off the axelback just so I can get a quick video. The exhaust shop didnt have a gasket for the MP to Axelback which I thought was strange, so Im waiting on my gasket in the mail and I will get a sound clip. Sounds really good so far but I would like it a bit louder. We will see once I get that gasket.
