Like I said, I have this funny feeling I just got one from a bad batch or something. Most people havent had any fitment issues and I had quite a few. The one that really boggled my mind was the bolts supplied by Megan didnt fit in the hanger holes in their own exhaust. That one seems pretty idiot-proof to me.

Man you must have got a bad setup. I didn't have any issues with the installation of their product. The problem I did run into was my stock Cat. Man that thing was a PITA to get off!!!

The only problem I see with the Megan stuff is that there is a huge reducer in the test pipe piping. The resonator necks down to 2.5". This section is about 14" long and will have a drastic effect on performance. Other than that I have seen the stuff and it is pretty nice.

I have the Megan Catback and it is awesome! Perfect fit, outstanding quality, great sound, cool JDM look. You can't beat these guys for the price.

I was skeptical of Megan products initally but I saw their catback on a car here locally and it looked quite nice.

I'm confused... there are no reducers on the Evo model... of any kind... 3" all the way...

Get your facts straight. There are NO REDUCTIONS in the resonator. You should know this already as you remarket their resonated pipes as your own.

megan downpipe doesn't fit 05 evo... oh well most of them don't fit even helix version 2. otherwise, it is great product.

I'm still looking into this, but now Megan says they "should" fit 05" GSRs... there may be a problem with MRs... I didn't know there was a difference dimensionally with the six speed (I've done no work on MRs).
