Megan Racing Cat Back Exhaust Review

does anybody besides tampagsedan have the megan racing cat back exhaust..? ive been considering it and i just wanted someones opinion on what they thought about the exhaust.. i know megans has had problems in the past and i really dont care to hear any test pipe stories or info.. i really just want to know what you guys think of the megan catback exhaust.. i actually think it sounds really nice


Megan Racing (CAT Back - no other mods)

the muffler and mid pipe are like 400$ and the y pipe is like 200$..

I don't have it, I have the Stillen BUT i was lookin' into gettin' it for my Wife's G sedan... after a lot of thought, i'm just gonna go w/the coupe mid-pipe and aftermarket y-pipe & axle-back setup. the Megan sounds nice in a rev BUT i think it would just have too much drone day to day.

Thanks... as for the drone, i think it'd be too much for my Wife day to day. i'm sure i wouldn't have too much of a problem w/it. yeah, and if you've heard ur buddie's Megan Exauhst in person and like it, you should go for it. you really can't beat that price for a cat-back system on the G.

nah he actually lives in tampa and im in birmingham.. ive never heard it in person... i dont know about the whole drone thing either like if it will even annoy me.. i sorta like how the exhaust isnt very loud in the high rpms.. i just think it has an overall great sound.. im mainly concerned about quality.

Their exhaust products are pretty bad but their coilovers and their brakes are actually quite good.

Ooops I revise myself, sorry ONLY PEOPLE WHO OWN IT WILL SAY ITS GOOD, besides it sucks, Lawy'dU is right but then to a point theres no point buying their ****, i know what lawy'dU is thinking, brakes and coil overs are OK for them, but why buy it if theres a buttload of better stuff out there? I mean are you broke? If you're broke get megan

im a 17 year old junior who plays varsity baseball and basketball so i cant work at all during the school year.. ill make about 2 grand this summer.. i need to save a lot of that to last me throughout the school year on food and girls... so yea i guess i am broke.. and dont even think about telling me the G is more important than girls

ok so what exhaust would you buy if you had a sedan.. stillen gen 2?

i mean i honestly think the megan sounds better than the stillens..

Not familiar with the Megan really. Trey did a TON of research before he did his exhaust. I sent you a PM, let us know how to get a hold of you and maybe he has some info for you. He rarely gets on here anymore He works too much!
