Hey guys, I've noticed in my research that a Megan Racing Test Pipe is to big. The OEM cat is 12.5 inches longer and the Megan racing one can be from 13.5-14.5. Therefore does anyone know of any other test pipes to get? I've found this one but it doesn't say how long it is! http://www.ebay.com/itm/2000-2003-NI...1520d8&vxp=mtr

 

the one linked will fit but you dont want one that cheap, the bolts in that kit are probably grade 5 at best. I would get this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nissan-89-98...d2f4c1&vxp=mtr

 

I have a 03 Maxima. Will it fit?

 

Should but not 100% certain. I dont know the length of your OEM cat that the test pipe is to replace. The oversized will not fit, that I am certain of. Your cat should measure a little over 12" no?

 

Stock cat measures up to 12.5inches!

 

it should be 12 3/8". It should fit but I cant tell you for certain. Search around on here. A lot use the 3" test pipe and it is the same size as the Cattman fastcat just a lot cheaper. I dont know why they sell oversized test pipes. Beats me but I am sure there is a good reason

 

Here is one 12.5''.....

That's for a 95-99 though... lol

 

it could be for a 1950 ford but if it is the right size it is the right size. Really dont think it is 12.5" though.

 

Same ****, I thought you knew...same length.....

 

wouldnt buy one that says 2000-2003, theyre are a bunch of variations.

 

The megans suck yes they are too long but the 240 one fits

Hmm, I posted WTB on JDMofchicago because I know alot of guys have 240sx's and someone has he wants to sell me for $10 bucks its 12.5 inchs but Idk if its 2.25 inch or 3 inch... I'll pick that up see if it works!

 

But he put that its a non resonated one.. I'm guessing none of the test pipes out there have resonators ..

 

that non resonated one will just be a 12.5" pipe(literally) with the flanges at the ends of it

 

4th gen maxima test pipe will fit as will a 240sx test pipe.

Don't believe us? Search.

 

Is this a bad thing?? And he told me it's 2.5inch and 12.5inches long so it'll work?

 

not a bad thing. the main advantage that a resonated test pipe would have is that it would deaden a little bit of the extra noise and possible rasp that comes with removing the main cat. It will work with the car, and will not cause any issues(other than a possible code for low cat efficiency, or O2 sensor code). That issue mainly happens when you remove the cat, but there are solutions for that too. You can use spark plug anti foulers to help resolve any O2 codes

 

I have no rasp, and have a 3 inch test pipe on mine. aside from that I use an o2 sim on the secondarys. I purchased mine from Mandrel bent solutions. Ordered the 3 inch pipe and flanges, as well as a bung to add my wideband, and just had a friend weld it up in place.

 

So I'm going to throw a check engine light.. mm I see
