Megan Racing Cat-back System

I've been asking around a lot for more information about peoples opinions or experiences with the Megan Catback system. I've looked on their site and they seem like a decent company, and easily the cheapest catback system out there. i was wondering how the installation went or anything else that anyone knows about it.
the link to their site:www.meganracing.com
the link to the catback system: http://www.meganracing.com/products/...d=125&catid=21
and finally the link to the ebay sale for it: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Megan...spagenameZWD1V
there are other sellers for this product, so anyone that knows anything about these sellers and their reputations would also help.
muchos gracias!

be careful with exhaust threads...the exhaust is ok. As many will tell you, get what you pay for. It's a cheap exhaust because it's not a top notch exhaust. I've heard ok things about it. Sounds clips are in the stickies. Installation will be just like any other exhaust. Got the tools, then it should go on pretty easy. Guys that have it say that it sounds fairly nice but it has problems rusting semi quickly, I believe....go to http://maxmods.dyndns.org/
and look in the exhaust section. It will give you a small discription about it.

My megan racing catback didn't rust a single bit in the year and a half that I had it on the car... that includes driving the car every day throughout a michigan winter with lots of road salt. They don't rust quickly, not sure where you heard that.

Sound wise it is loud. You can search for a more detailed description that I've posted in any number of threads before asking the same questions.

thanks for the correction. I must be thinking of a different exhaust.

Remark: 95-96 models need to get a extra sensor pipe to connect the system to your catalytic converter. Price to buy in Nissan dealer is around 45.00, or you can buy it from us for 60.00 including shipping.

The little OEM S pipe is a POS, so if you do get the exhaust have an exhaust shop extend the B pipe to the cat.

The megan is nicely priced for what you get. A SS catback system with 2.5" piping (well 60mm).

I've driven a friends old car that had it, quiet at idle and when your not hammering the throttle. When you gun it, then its gets loud! There is some drooning here and there, but not present for the most part.

it all boils down to what is too loud for you?
