Hey, I see the 1g AWD megan exhausts on ebay a lot now...They look good and the price is unbeatable..Do they still do the slanted angle tip like the N1?? If so, sign me up!!

since everyone likes megans so much. how about ask somebody to do a GB on there stuff? just a idea.
I have an account with them, I could get a group buy going, but it's against forum policy unless you are a vendor. Maybe one of the vendors could assist?
yea i would really like this exhaust sometime soon, my greddy catback is rusted and i need a downpipe (i have stock now) wouldnt mind that manifold either..hell ill buy it all. when is this comming out!? im excited
A friend of mine who is officially selling Megan Racing products over here in Europe told me that Megan does offer a 2.5" and a 3" cat-back for the GST when I ordered my from him, for some reason they just don't offer it on their homepage...maybe you'll just have to give them a call or write an email.
You are talking about the Megan 3" catback for the 2g gst right?
No sir, I email them that i own 95 Eagle Talon Tsi Awd. Only reason is awd driver on here is waiting for the catback and down pipe. Also they have stated that there was fitting issue is because down pipe were made for their catback. So hopefully they re-do catback & downpipe so ppls could purchase them.
i have a feeling megan will have alot of buyers when it comes out. Guess ill ask for the magan cat back for christmas. Just ordered the megan dowpipe, hope it fits
I ended up getting my Megan Racing 3in DP to fit my 96 GSX by taking off the o2 housing, drilling the studs out and replacing them with the bolts that came with the DP just so it would bolt on!. Oh well, I had Medikee weld up a 3in catback for $150 supplying them with a $60 Megan Racing muffler, I was in bussness for around $340 total. not bad!
well i got mine downpipe about a month ago and i couldn't be any happier.I got a mgnaflow highflow welded on there.butt dyno was very happy.Megan seems to be making some nice prodects.I would definatly get a o2 housing if they made one.
To the guy with the manifold test unit: can you try to convince them to not make the collector as narrow as all the other models out there? We need something to match the Bullseye housing. Catering to the 6cm unported mitsu housing is so 1999.
I just put a megan racing 3" full exhaust on my 1g and I could'nt be happier. I got it used for $300 and I bought a a 3" stainless vrs test pipe from slowboy. The only place it comes close to anything is the flex in the downpipe. It comes fairly close to the transfer case. I am very happy with the fit and finish. Where else would you get full stainless for this kind of price that fit this well. Overall very happy with everything.

I would also like to say on the 1g model the downpipe starts at 2 1/2" for the first 3 inches and then goes to full 3" before the flex and remains a full 3" the entire length of the exhaust the only thing I had to add was a 3" test pipe

I've been talkin to Jose from megan racing and he said he'd update me as soon as the new exhaust for the 2g awd's and the tubular mani's were finished. I'll post here when I get an update.
So, the 1g awd downpipe only goes to the inlet of the cat; and the catback only connects to the outlet of the cat?
From what I understood before, the catback was cat eliminator so it would bolt-right up to the downpipe; but TOP SECRET just posted that he needed to get a 3" testpipe to bolt up the whole setup.....
hmm, a little confused here?

That is correct I had to use a vrs test pipe to make it bolt together. The downpipe is not a cat eliminator. It may be diferent on 2g's. I'll try to add my pics a little later today.

Damn, that's too bad...Then if it was made to connect to the cat, does it bottle-neck down to the stock cat size or does it have a 3" outlet on both DP/CB....I am disapointed, I really thought it would've been a direct bolt up...They should make a cat-eliminator then

The 2g GSX downpipes are definitely cat-eliminating. I have the final production downpipe in my garage waiting to be installed, it definitely bypasses the cat. I just emailed them asking about the 1g downpipes, I'll post here when I get an answer as to whether or not the 1g downpipes are cat-eliminating or not.

thats what I don't understand if it's a full 3" how does it connect to the cat? and I dont see them on ebay anymore for a first gen awd..
I'm still waiting for a response about the 1g, since its at the prototype stage right now, he has to contact the owner of the 1g GSX that installed the prototype on his car. Anyway, I installed the updated 2g AWD downpipe prototype a few days ago...DAMN it sounds nice. I got the heatshield from the cat welded onto the downpipe so it looks like it has a cat on there...

can we possibly get some pics of the turbo back bolted together off of the car?, and are there any neck downs? i didnt see where either of those questions has been asked in this thread

I'm lost there redoing the 1g also if so what was wrong with them? maybe that's why there not on ebay anymore?
