It's actually 20% off, not 30%. The price is $2160 though

I feel you and was giving it until about the end of the month. I got an email from Malek saying he was starting middle of this month. Give him a call and confirm if he tells you the same. If so cool, if not i'll pick up a Dinan with you and can see if we can get a better price. I was looking to Dinan as well as their quality is always top notch.

Make a video/sound bite when you're done kuya hahah, I'll probably be in PI for 3 days for a graduation, it'd be nice to hear something nice while I'm there but I'll be in Pampanga.

I have heard the Meisterschaft GT2 with the Dinan and it is an incredible sound. I mean incredible. Buddy of mine here in MA ran it for a while. Made me very jealous. No noticeable drone at all and very tolerable for DD.
does this have test pipe too? i'm considering dinan because it has 4 resonators in their x pipe

I had thread sometime ago with different setups you can hear how loud the gt2 was with the challenge. search for ms372 on YouTube
I actually considered gt2 at first but ended up buying gt since I want to do a test pipe and x pipe setup for more gains. changing up exhaust I think has minimal gains and want more addional hp.

So you are suggesting I don't do test pipe and just go with high flow cats with 4 resonators? I run all my cars before without cats

i'm thinking I can do tuner test pipes and run the stock x pipe. but i'm hoping to get the maximum power since a x pipe can still give around 5-10whp. just hoping it will not change the tone and pitch of the meisterschaft

I wanted that GTS at first but I figured I will get the more tamed meisterschaft in order to get test pipes and x pipe without making it sound too loud with added power. thanks!

Speak with Andrew @ AR Design. He made an inhouse xpipe for me (catless/no resonator) and i picked up close to 40 wheel hp with it.

yeah try something with HFC in the same place as the stock front cats. Don't try a catless setup, why too loud and raspy.

Thats not true if you have 1 or 2 sets of resonators.
