Default Quick question...

I'm looking into replacing the OE-RS axleback portion of my exhaust and I was informed that the Megan Drift Spec won't bolt up into my stock-style OE-RS midpipe... that true? If so, will any axlebacks bolt in correctly? Thanks.

All axle backs replace from the stock axle back location. The Megan Drift Spec is a Cat back and bolts up the the stock location on the S pipe.

the stock axle back tripped me out when i changed out to an aftermarket axle back. The stock exhaust reminded me of an air compressor tank, and just about weighed as much as one

that is correct, the midpipe for the drift spec and the oe-rs are different and therefore the midpipe from your oe-rs won't work with the drift spec axleback portion. the oe-rs midpipe is similar to the stock midpipe and therefore can be used with any axleback that was designed for the stock midpipe, but the drift spec midpipe portion only works with the drift spec axleback portion.
