Dual Megan racing catback

[Andrei]

I had an idea for a while now to buy 2 Megan catbacks and modify the piping on the passanger side going over the rear axle to make it fit. I could move the charcoal canister into the trunk like Tim did. From the catback I would make custom 3" piping all the way up to downpipes.



Anyone here think that it's a good idea?

Go for it.. I can totally see this working.. plenty of room

For $900 + modification/fabrication of pass side you could get a complete true dual cat back. Is there something that is keeping you dead set on the Megan? Sound?

You will end up with a dual 3 inch catback exhaust. This will totally kill your low end. The single 3 inch alone would hurt your low end I can't imagine what two would do. I think you would be better off with a custom or going with a coupe exhaust and making it fit.

Wow, I didn't realize it was a 3" system. +234523451234 to that ^

If you have no plans on going BIG FI then you do not need a true 3" dual exhaust. Leave it to Andrei to put a 3" TD on an NA car though .

3" piping. The only dual option is a Borla which is 2.25" only.

Stillen is also a true dual and ~2.5".

If you are staying N/A or lower boost I would go with dual 2.25".

It will eventually be high boost so I have no reason to spend the money on something that will slow me down later. I am probably going to make a true dual 3" out of another Megan exhaust before the end of next month. Straight 3" piping all the way to the headers with no cats. Later when I FI the car I'll make a v pipe from the turbo downpipe to split the exhaust.

You have a PM.

Is this confirmed? Just wondering because I just measured the diameter on my Stillen exhaust and it's 2.25"

Some of the exhaust parts came in yesterday and today. Still waiting on everything else.

I have laser cut ss flanges cut to fit 3" 16 gauge ss piping, gaskets, hangers and o2 sensor bungs and plugs.

Does anybody know where I can find the flange bolts from the Megan exhaust?

Does anyone know where I can find these exact bolts from the Megan exhaust? I guess I'll just call Megan.

Fuel hoses came today of different sizes because I was lazy to measure what I needed exactly and 14 gauge Stinger wire to relocated the EVAP canister in the trunk. I'm still looking for the heat shield above the muffler.

Looks like alot of work

This is just a stepping stone and it is a lot of work and FUN but the benefits to me are more than worth it.
