Those don't look like the Megan's my friend has. They might have changed.... but i doubt it.

Call megan ASAP tomorrow and give them a description and serial number.

Every single post I have seen everyone posted their red coilovers, as far as I know I am the only one I have seen these coilovers in silver.

How are you so sure (not being an ***, just asking)?

I am sure, I just installed mine like a week or so ago! Mine look just like the picture you posted! I don't know if they have switched colors or what, but they very well could have. I am sorry I am so confusing! I would call them. The thing that would worry me is, there is no paperwork with them. Mine came with instruction manual, and a warranty papers!

D0h... don't tell me they sold WRX suspension to EVO owners? Would that even work? I have little knowledge of how similar their systems are. My buddy has a WRX with Megan C/O's. I can see if he has pics of the setup.

Some one owns us an explanation here. I went to Megan Racing website and they only have the street series for the Evos which are red.


The one that I have look identical to the WRX track series ones. To make matter more confusing I just found two tiny stickers on the outside of the box that says: Evo(Track)

I am soo confused, I will get to the core of this issue today. I hope I can help you as much as you are helping me.

I talked to megan they ran out of the standard coilovers which are red so they shipped you the new better version they told me. They cost more megan racing said.

Why dont you call Logic and talk to them about it? If you're looking for an explanation you have to get it from the source, not random people on the internet.

He's right. It is funny.

Your use of the term "fake" to describe Megan Racing products is amusing because most of Megan Racing's products are simply Chinese/Taiwanese-made knockoffs of brand-name aftermarket performance parts.

Because when I discovered the coilovers it was at night at 10pm Arizona time. Logic performance was close and also because I needed and answer ASAP before my scheduled installation

This morning already called Megan racing a couple of times at 0830am Arizona time and no one picked up the phone.

I am years light ahead of the game, I don't go to a forum to ask silly questions.
Botton line is that I have a set of coilover that even Megan Racing haven't update on their website.
