Default New axle back mufflers from Megan

Hey guys I was searching for a dual exhaust and I came across these from Megan racing. Dual axle back mufflers, 2.5" inlet. I don't like the way the tips are welded on, but all that matters is how it looks from the rear. It's $380 from Megan http://www.meganracing.com/products/...=815&catid=133


This is on ebay right now.

Looks nice but how's the sound?

I hate EBstores...slow shipping, no response.

Doesn't look too bad. Wonder how they look from rear on the ground.

I think having the silencers in makes it look stupid too.

A pic of the car on the ground, w/o silencers would be better.

Left one looks more inset than the right one.

I think I would need to see these from behind the car on the ground to pass judgement. They look pretty nice from what I can see, but I agree, it does look like the tips are set a little too far back.

The tips don't even stick out far enough.

I think they look perfectly fine for a OEM replacement; but def w/o the silencer. Only if they had a 3" inlet we'd be in heavan.....well at least us F/I guys. Megan is dominating the import market slowly but surely!

ill be better off with an oem replacement with welding on my own tips. but if it floats his boat, then go for it. i really dopnt like the welding they did nor the tips... any sound clips w/ and w/o silencers? or ground shots?

The offcenter look is awsome on this car and makes it look somewhat stock from a distance. Wish it could stick out the bumper a little bit, but maybe the hangers could be modified so it could. Its for the SC4 and SC3 which is a plus, wonder how it would sound though...
