Default Mengan Mid pipe

I need your help. Does anybody know if the Mengan midpipe comes with the s pipe? Im going to put a complete mengan exhaust on my Tc and I got the header and exhaust just wanted to know what else I needed when I get the mid pipe.

Iv had two issues with it, first it pushes my axle back exhaust tip about an inch past my bumper(may not be the mid pipe, could be a flaw with my axle back). Second the gaskets tend to want to shift on you while you tighten the two sections of the mid pipe together, so you need to keep an eye on it or youll get a little leak.

i have the trd axle back and the megan mid pipe and the s pipe didn't push mine out at all...i do think it is your axle back....but either way...i agree with the fitment issue...suprisingly it seems like megan just roughly put together a mid and s pipe setup, without really making sure they were dotting their i's and crossing their t's...and also for the s pipe, i don't know if it's with most after market...but the megan s pipe hangs pretty low...either way, it's not a bad setup for the money i guess...

I'm also getting the mengan racing axel back exhaust, does anybody know anything about it? Does it sound good and is there a noticable HP? Im kind of iffy I was wanting something that went straight through but Im getting Mengan header, s pipe, and midpipe so I thought I would keep it all the same brand. If I don't get that I was thinking exhaust from Injen.

a cat back exhaust on our cars usually eliminates the second cat basically its the piping all the way from the s-pipe back

and as long as you replace the whole exhaust with something larger then the 2" stock piping you will see gains from an axleback... if you leave part of the 2" piping in there, for instants the mid pipe you wont really see much a gain going to a after market axleback ... but even at that the gains are minimal

So if I got a catback exhaust It would go S pipe then cat the catback exhaust. I never messed with exhaust so all this is new to me.

lulz.
1. it's megan.
2. catback is basically a midpipe section and axleback section put together.
3. yes, we all don't have a lot of time on our hands, but let's try to do a quick search first.
