Not sure if anyone has ordered the new Test Pipe from Street Unit yet so I thought I would share my thoughts. I had mine installed last week and I couldn't be happier with it! The pipe adds a nice low rumble to the stock exhaust and I picked up some major grunt in the lower revs, quite a difference! If anyone is thinking about it I highly recommend it, it's a very nice piece.
(Thanks to Tommy at Street Concepts for the install, I couldn't wait to do it myself and they had it installed the same day I got it)

This very piece is on my list to be ordered within the coming week actually. I'm really glad to hear you like it as i was a bit nervous as its a new piece to the market, but i had confidence as StreetUnit is a great company! How was the fit and finish of the piece? Reused the OEM rubber ring thing right?
I can’t wait to order mine now that you have one! Making me jealous

Fit and finish are excellent, for a prefab piece it's spot on (it does use the stock donut flange). If you want to check mine out before you buy send me a PM, I'm just over in Parker.

Street Unit charged me $189 for the pipe (free shipping) and Street Concepts charged me $40 for the install.

I may take you up on this. I'm most curious as to how the oem donut flange helps this piece possibly be better than some of the others, ect. If it does at all. Thanks for all the info!

I put the same piece on my Speed6 a few months back. I love the sound, and there was a bit of a HP gain. It is easy to do this install yourself (if you choose) and I would recommend using some PB Blaster to loosten the bolts. The biggest PITA was getting the stock flange to line back up. Congrats on your purchase!
