Who's got it? Megan Racing OE-RS catback!!
Ok, I've seen 2 of them sell on eBay already. Was it someone on here?
Sound clip? Fitment issues? Come on. Anyone?

My rear section at the flange is corroded and leaking thru. 97k miles on car. I like the look of this OEM style stainless steel construction. @ $380 shipped from Megan Racing, this is the option I will prob go, but wanted some feedback

EB Stores is probably trying to grab the market fast before people get wind that Megan Racing sells them cheaper on their own website. That's marketing.

Shipping is 5 bucks less on MR so thats the only difference. Just make a cheaper offer and he'll accept it, i paid 400 shipped.
The thing that threw me off was that it says its the drift spec speries on ebay so i couldnt find it on MR's website until a few hours ago.

Ah, sneaky. I saw $0 in shipping on MeganRacing and assumed it was free shipping. Just registered and did a checkout to see shipping cost, $45.
Argh.

Why the hell would you want to see dyno charts? Theres already enough threads saying that exhaust will give you barely any gains. No point in dynoing just an exhuast. Only newbies would request for dyno charts with an exhaust.

Ya thats what i told myself too. I was going to build my own catback but nobody in Lubbock has a mandrel bender so I didnt want to go through the hassle of ordering the mandrel bent pipes from somewhere and the muffler and resonator then paying a shop for all the welding. I calculated this was probably cheaper and MR is a respectable company. AND this was an excuse to use my new compressor and air tools.
Youll get a video clip but we all its not gonna do much for performance w/o supporting mods.

Our stock homeycomb cat is pretty free flowing, its debateable whether theres any gains, but it will make things louder.
My catback will arrive and be installed on Wednesday...but i cant find my digi anywhere
