Megan Version 2 Resonated Testpipes Installed w/ Vid

[COPPERFX]

Like the title says. Figured I'd be a guinea pig...got them for $121 off ebay new. During the installation I removed the cat heatshields, driveshaft heats
hield, and rear muffler heatshield. Primed and Coated with Rustoleum Rubberized Coating for sound deadening. Here are a few pics and a vid thanks to my handy Iphone. Oh yeah other exhaust parts: Kakumei Y-Pipe and HKS Legamax Catback.

i helped my friend installed this with the invidia exhaust at the base shop after we were done he drove home.. i was working on my FX.. i hear him coming back and pulling in.. i asked him what's wrong? he answered me dude this combination is TOO loud so he place the OEM cat back with the invidia exhaust..


how do you like them so far?

One of the cheapest... Ponnies for pennies worth mod on the vq35 motor.
$100 test pipes will give u good 10-15whp, and very good opening up top ...

Mated with plenum spacer, ztube and kn&n filter, u will feel it no matter who says No.


Reset ur eCu with ur gas pedal and let it learn how to run with the new setup.

Yeah I have 5/16 Spacer, Z-tube, K&N Filter already. I had the invidia before with HFC and it was way too loud. The invidia has crazy drone. With the HKS Legamax it sounds great. Worth the experiment and 2.5 hrs of my Saturday

i see.. so do you think that the rustuleum helped keeping the sound out of the cabin?.. since my friend is selling his megan racing Cats.. i might get them and mate them up with my OEM exhaust.. i wonder how these cats and the Nismo Exhaust would sound...

 

[COPPERFX]

These plus Nismo is nice...lots of Zs running that combo. I think it help some...

[SexualChocolate]

From looking at the pics online these look like they will not fit 45s. Would someone correct me if I am wrong please.

Looks good. The video doesn't work though. Is it loud, feel any difference?

No engine light thrown?

Oh damn! Yeah that makes sense. Hearing Tony talk about them last winter got me interested until I saw the price. The idea behind them is really cool though.

 

[dlaska]

anyone know if these Megan Resonated Testpipes will fit the 45?

nevermind...says 35 only

 

[Mikefx35]

Are these gonna sound good with the invidia exhaust cause I got Berks on right now

 

["LittleGagne"]

Apparently it's loud. But I don't see an issue with obnoxiousness. Then again I'm 16 and that's how I like it aha
