This down pipe is flaring out 3" immediatly after the O2 hoising flange, 3" before and after the flex section. At the end it has an Apext sized flange ( slightly less than 3"). It comes with 2 gaskets, bolts and braket to attach to the block.


I replaced my RSR 95+ GST down pipe with the Megan pipe. Fitment is actually better with the awd pipe. I did cut the pipe since it was to long for my setup and added a true 3" two bolt flange from RRE. Overall I'm really happy with the way this pipe looks and performs. Fitment is PERFECT a c50.



Got this off ebay for $93 + $35 shipping

here is what it looks like http://images.channeladvisor.com/Sell/S ... E95GSX.jpg

Good review, I was wondering about that downpipe myself... Definitely can't beat the price :)

If the car owner decides to have a cat, wouldn't we have to cut about half of it anyways? If so, you mind as well tell the exhaust shop worker to build you a x turbo back

well that's part of what makes it so great... since i'm gonna run with a high flow cat, i'll be cutting off the end that shrinks with the restriction. and even then, i don't think 100 bucks will buy you a custom fabbed downpipe, and even if it did, it' wouldn't be as pretty 8)

I just thought that I would give a little update... I just got the newly re-designed Megan Racing 2g GSX downpipe. the only part on the whole piece that is 2.5" is the opening for the o2 housing. The rest (including flexpipe and even the cat) is all 3". On top of that, the reduction at the o2 housing isn't just welded on there, they actually reduced it somehow (probably some sort of mandrel machine).
