I recently purchased some megan test pipes for my 350z. I'm aware that megan is known for not having the greatest quality but I got a great deal on them from a company that is going out of business ($50 to be exact). I had a few megan parts on my old car (header, downpipe, and full exhaust) and I really never had a problem with them and thought it was a great buy compared to alot of other companies.

Anyways, I noticed the one's that I received have a very long O2 bung on each of them (about 1 1/2 - 2" long to be exact). I figured when I purchased these I would have to use some spark plug anti-fouler's (I had to on my old car) but since the O2 bung is so long I was thinking maybe I would be alright without them.

I saw a few pictures on megan test pipes on the for sale forum, but they did not have this long O2 bung like mine have. Does anyone know if this is a newer version which does not require anti-foulers?

Also, I was under the car today looking at the stock downpipes and I noticed there was some type of support bracket attached to each one. The megan pipes do not have anywhere to bolt the support bracket to, so I'm a little worried the weld's might have too much stress on them (even though they look very nice). I figured if they do break it's only $50 so it's not the end of the world. Anyone ever have a problem with them breaking?

Any comments or experiences with the megan resonated test pipes would be appreciated.

Yea mine completly fell apart into peices they are junk. I made my own test pipes out of real materials, not crushed together tin cans.

 

I have never had a problem with my megan test pipes. They have held up great. Had them off and on many times and no fitment issues. I think they are fine. Beats paying $300 bucks for the same thing

 

Are you using any type of anti-fouler's on your test pipes?

 

+1 and i am using non foulers on my test pipes.

Both of my megan pipes broke the metal on them is like paper thin. Even name brand test pipes only use 16 gauge pipe. I made my own out of 14 gauge. On one of them the resonater split, where there was no weld. the other pipe the weld snapped. If you do use cheap ones make sure you make a bracket to bolt them onto the factory cat brace.
