Megan Downpipe Fits IX

the fitment was nearly perfect..it wasn't touching the ACD but it was very close..the shop guys bent the hangers upward which gave antoher 1/4 inch clearance.. all i can say is POWER POWER POWER...i really feel the difference..


cheers

Good. Others had said it doesn't fit, but then again, others have said the Megan DP doesn't fit on the 05 w/ACD either, yet mine fits wonderfully. I've also seen two local IXs with the cat-back, and it fit perfectly, too, so I guess I'll continue using the Megan in my IX stages, too.

I've been waiting on a confirmed exhaust fitment without having to do a hybrid setup. I may be able to go ahead and use the Megan now.

it didn't touch..but it was just to close for comfort..so he had a quick fix...the only thing i was surprised, maybe it was just missing from my kit. it didn't come with screws to bolt up to the o2 housing. and the factory screws didn't fit, so the shop had to shave a section of the screws to get it work.

cheers

Been thinking about getting Megan products as they are close to me, but was thinking about fitment problems as some said they do not fit and some said they do. Warrtalon is a very trustable person on Evo, so I will try out their products too if the fitments are not a problem.

Because of that very sentiment, I don't want to lead anyone astray, so I haven't gotten hasty and made any claims on the MEgan yet. I'd like to get a IX to TheSpeedFactor and install a full Megan TBE to see what's up.

I've been R&D'ing with megan this week, I believe they will have a prototype catback for me in about a month? who knows.

It doesn't appear there's any reason to built a new cat-back.
