megan y-pipe back

anyone have this? i found one clip on youtube and it appears that megan took the most convenient method for making this "fit" our cars. and as a result the tips look like they are tucked, but i can't tell from this clip. they look tucked, but i can't be completely sure from this angle. just wondering how the tips sit b/c i'm considering this exhaust...

Our cars? That's a Z. If they are using the Z system on the G w/o mods, it will be tucked. No question

Did you see the first video? It's a G. And that was the purpose of my question. I was asking if they are using a Z system with an extension pipe - like Nismo, x02, and ARK. Or maybe they took the better route like HKS did and made a separate exhaust specific for each vehicle.

Just found my answer:







I will NOT be going with this exhaust. Tips are hella tucked and WTF are those holes in the tips?

I assume you mean single exit. I would like to do that, but the only way I'll do that is if I come across a cheap Nismo style diffuser, fill in the right inlet, and find a decently priced angled exhaust (Greddy, probably).

On what merits did you consider the megan anyway? Fitment aside?

I'm not looking for performance one bit. I just want it to look/sound good. Ideally, I'd polish the stock muffler/tips to a high polish as I love the sound already. But a few members have tried this and they just can't get the finish I am looking for. So now I'm looking for an exhaust with a high polished single muffler...but I won't just settle for an exhaust that looks good if I'm going to pony up the $ for it.

^^^Been looking at Fuji for a minute. Just waiting for a good deal to pop up in the classifieds (they pop up on occasion, but I always miss them).

Fuji is my #1 choice, but I'm not looking to buy it new. It's pricey for what it is.
