If my megan downpipe is 3inches.how do i make the megans racing ss 02 fit?

[vteckiller92tsi]

The only megan racing ss 02 housing i can find is the 2.5 flange.How do i make this work thought same product name would make a same size product but i guess not.

The downpipe is 2.5" at the inlet and 3" at the outlet(sorta) it's more more like 2.75"

Take it to a exhaust shop and have them modified it..or call megan and ask simply as that

-2.5" Opening on Two-Bolt flat flange is compatible with most Downpipes as well as OEM.

EXTREME PSI : Your #1 Source for In Stock Performance Parts - Megan Racing SS Turbo Outlet(O2) Housing: Mitsubishi Eclipse 90-99

- 3" piping with 2.5" entrance

EXTREME PSI : Your #1 Source for In Stock Performance Parts - Megan Racing 3" Downpipe: Mitsubishi Eclipse 90-94 AWD

Good job with the research.

The holes in the downpipe and the O2 housing are usually slotted. This allows the use of different sized flanges when bolting the system together. I do not think you will find a off the shelf O2 housing with a 3" outlet most are 2.5".

I purchased a downpipe off ebay that had a 2.5" inlet flange and after about 2" the pipe expanded to 3" for the rest of the pipe. I did this to avoid any flange mismatch that could cause turbulence.

Make sure you mark the topic as resolved so when some other random person is searching it they know an answer can be found in here.

 

[vteckiller92tsi]

Yea i found all that but like i said i misread the piping on the down pipe so was looking for a 3inch 02 housing. i found 2.5 same add you found but thought it wouldn't fit because my misread.but thank you turboanything for answering the correct way your input was all i needed.

haha this thread gave me a good laugh!!

But I agree, Always trying to do something yourself and knowing that the issue might be will not only be much more helpful when trying to figure an issue out, it will continue to help you learn new things and improve your mechanix skills. For example, My Punishment DP doest fit quite right for whatever reason. Why you might ask?

When I went to install the DP, I have 2 issues, First being that the dp for whatever reason seems to like to rub against my transfer case when the bolts are tightened down and second the mating of the flanges on the PR mild steel o2 housing and Punishment dp are a very exact fit and if slightly off, causes an exhaust leak. Not to mention the stock DP collar hanger is in the way and I have not had the chance to remove it and re-align the DP to the O2.

The transfer case rubbing seems to be a common issue.

 

[AlaskanDsm]

Really?! I emailed PR about it and even sent them pictures of the setup and they told me that there should be no fitment issues and that all I had to do was to adjust the connection points of the O2 and catback.. Only when you do that, it doesn't line up properly and causes your exhaust to have some nice leaks in it.
