Ehh im iffy about it, when i got mine the resonator was bad in it so i hated since i put it on, i got the resonator fixxed and its alot better but still a bit to loud during normal driving but its what happens when you got for a cheaper product and it been used, im prolly change my muffler to a super turbo muffler i may lose a few hp but atleast I wont hear my exhaust poppin when i shift or i let off the gas.

^ I have teh Megan as well, i like to popping when im downshifting adn such, but it its Frickin Loud on WOT. im thinking about going the same route with a super turbo.
OP, i would look into a Badmab header while your at it. they're under $200 and have great reviews

The Megan is a pos. I had one on for almost 3 years and I couldn't stand it. Too much drone, too raspy, and it just plain sounds like ****. Not to mention all the flanges and also the piping on either side of the resonator aren't stainless steel, mine fell apart when I was trying to take it off.
I went with the Corsa Touring ( a bit pricy for some, but well worth it) and I'm in love with my car again.
Just please don't buy a Megan, you'll regret it.

Where is the super turbo from?
Hell, who makes the super turbo muffler?
I'm tired of the M-N1. Too loud, fart can, silencer doesn't do ****.

I don't have money for a new cat-back.
Going to go the above route and get a super turbo muffler welded on, even though I have no idea what that is or sounds like, but that seems to be the consensus.
Yes, it's a 4" tip.
The only gripe I have with mine is it's always loud.
If losing a couple horses with a new muffler gets rid of sounding WOT all the time, I'm all for it.

i put a Super turbo on my stock cat back before i bought the megan and i loved it. almost silent while cruising, but throaty under accel, not raspy. must turbo style mufflers are aluminized. so theres Boral for $100 or Flowmaster for $65
