anybody interested in a new one? i backed out of it due to i leaning towards my 5 speed swap parts. the shop ordered it and they're offering $300 local pickup which is in socal.. lmk ASAP

 

Let us know how it fits

 

 

New member, I'm sure this has been addressed bfore but I can't find it. Will a Megan catback fit a 04 I35. Everything else is stock

thx

 

i just got mine and put it on last night the whole exhaust was rusted and i had to cut it off its on now but it rattles alot any suggestions?

 

Megan will fit 00-04 I30/5 and 00-03 Maxima's.

As for rattling, tighten up those hangers by using hose clamps that can be found at home depot but keep in mind, the catback must be installed and pushed towards the car by car jacks for proper alignment, and not just bolting all pieces together...

 

Thanks for the info 00maxSE, do you know anything about the length of the muffler exhaust pipes in respect to the bumper. Heard it might be a little short on the i35

Thx Again

 

Does anyone have pic of a megan or cattman catbacks on a 2004 i35.

 

Anybody has em for sale?

 

From looking around, it looks like they went back in stock in April.

 

Missed this one, thought they was all done for the Maxima Exhaust so went the Cattman Route but its cool should have it by hopefully Aug. need like 2 more people!!

 

14" mufflers suck!!!!!!!!!!

 

Anyone with any fitment issues with the 20th AE? My factory muffler needs to be replaced. Instead of paying Midas $250 for a OE muffler replacement i'll rather pay $320 to get the Megan Racing catback. Let me know. Thanks!

Just got this cat back in mail yesterday. Will install today I hope

 

Let me know how the install go. Where did you buy it from?

 

I would love to know how the install went. This is the same exhaust I wanted to get. Please repost when the install is done. I would love to know how it went and how well the exhaust performs.

 

The install wasn't bad. doing it laying on the ground and not being able to jack the rear of car high enough made getting rear section out a pain. A stud on the cat broke off when i tried to take bolt off. I ended up having to take it to shop to have stud torched off of the cat.
The system is a little louder than I thought it would be but the exhaust note is nice and aggressive. car seems to be a little more eager now to pull to red line. Ordered the cat back from meganracingperformance.com

 

Im going to have to install it laying on the ground as well. My oem catback looks like it has been replaced within the last few years so hopefully i dont break a bolt. I should be able to order mine in the next few weeks. I cant wait.

 

will this fit on my 20th anniversary edition?

 

it should fit any 5 gen

 

IIRC he'll have to mod his rear valance......

 

What exactly do you mean by modifying my rear valance? Cutting? Wouldnt it work if i adjusted the hangers?

 

Yes cause like I30/I35/AE the rear valance has no exhaut tip cut out....the mufflers have turned down tips.....

 

I got it installed today on my AE. there is fitment issues. it needed 2-3" of extra pipe welded on to make it long enough to sit flush with the rear lip. looks and sounds awesome now though. also one of the hangers on the car was rubbing the piping, so they cut the hanger a bit. I will post pics later.

 

Hi, new to this whole thing, this cat back setup is legal for road use in New York? or, how would I find out whether or not it is? thank you in advance.

 

Any exhaust after the main cat is legal in new york as long as it exits past the last window that can open on the vehicle.

 

Well, that was far more informative than any search result I found, thank you Tom!

 

Good luck with that brand...it's well built but just lacks a large enough rear muffler for my personal taste...It's one of those 14" mufflers! What I found out is the largest muffler that can fit is the best option in straight thru design mufflers...I utilize 11" x 5" x 22" Magnaflow mufflers on my 4th and 3rd Gen exhaust systems and they're pleasantly tamed! So get it and possibly replace the rear muffler with a larger Magnaflow unit 22" long oval 11" x 5" works as well as larger 4" round x 22" resonator...you'll be happy.
