Megan resonated test pipes
 
Hey guys just got my Megan resonated test pipes installed but I was wondering if this is normal ( probably not ) under hard acceleration in first and second gears I can feel them rubbing or something is rubbin under my feet... Anyone knows what it Would be??? Thx

not normal... check for clearance also check your motor mounts.

Get her up in the air and check the clearances, maybe now would be a good time to change oil & filter....Gary

I just installed megan test pipe and HKS catback and i dont have any problem at all the fitment was great and now the G35 sounds like a V8

thats normal, my art pipes did the same thing. its from the torque of the motor twisting every thing. i installed a weapon r engine damper and it hasent happend again.

For some reason, the way mine are making noise as if they were knocking under my feet tells me it is NOT normal... Also, I got my TB cleaned and my G threw a p0507 ( high idle rpm ) code.... I did an ecu reset, still the same, disconnected the battery for one hour, still did not change. When I come to a complete stop the engine runs at 1300rpm and drops to 800-850 rpm after a few seconds.... Any thoughts on what that could be?

Got the oil and filter changed about 1000km ago ..

Test pipes should not cause the engine to "torque" anymore than normal. There actually should actually be more clearance than the stock cats had. Something definetly sounds wrong. I'd get it up on a lift or atleast some jacks and have someone rev it while you're underneath...see if you can see anything happening or atleast pinpoint where the noise is coming from.

My Megan Resonated TP's have a serious rattle around 2k.. Ive visually seen it from under my hood. Exhaust wrap took care of it for me. Although I don't know how much help this will be since this doesn't seem to be your problem...

*from under my car... wow no sleep sucks

These fly by wire TB are very sensitive...did the same on another car and came out of range doing the same thing yours is doing... my friend came over with his $4500 snap on scanner and was able to fix it for me... he only stated that it was out of range and that his scanner was able to reset it back.

04BonBG35 02-13-2012 02:07 PM

Well I guess i'll have to find a friend of mine who owns one of those :p

04BonBG35 02-13-2012 02:10 PM

i've read that 650-750 rmp is the correct idle rpm, so i'm guessing that 800-850 is too high? or is it ok?
