You guys on here that hate on Megan Racing products for no reason than the price are too funny. If you truly have had a bad experience with the parts than I understand.

I do alot of product testing for alot of companies in this industry and others. Megan Racing is a company that I help R&D products for. I have yet to have any parts failures on any of the parts supplied to me to test for Megan Racing. I have had MANY parts failures but none have been from MR. I have tried out every product they make for the Z's and am now am trying some 240sx (s14) parts for them. I am impressed with the quality of these parts for the price. I am very hard on the parts I test and these MR parts are well made, IMO.

There is bad experiences with every product out there, and no companies products are flawless. I have broken/bent/and worn out alot of seemingly higher quality and nice brand name products I have tested long before I have seen failure in some of the MR products.

There is and always will be a better product out there, but as a whole, and for the price, you can't go wrong with Megan Racing products as far as I am concerned.

I really appreciate your honesty. I truly believe most people knock it because of one or two bad experiences that OTHER people have had.

I had a Megan Y pipe on my car for a while , fit and finish was great. Then i swapped to Tanabe. What i have to say now, the fit on the Megan was 100%better , it lined up perfectly, Tanabe put a nice preload on the Tp's and 6 months of use with the Megan Y pipe i had n test pipe cracks , and i just cracked my 2nd test pipe with the Tanabe Y pipe. The first one cracked about 2 weeks after i installed the Tanabe.

No , i cracked my test pipes once the tanabe was installed. I only put the tanabe on my car cause it came with the used exhaust i bought. The Megan Y pipe was perfect and still is, but its installed on someone elses car now.

I don't know, didn't a few high dollar, high quality Injen catbacks fall apart on a couple members recently?
