Megan Racing

vrsexhaust cat back.. 2.5 inch stainless steel with resonator
NEW ITEMS

or what do you think would be better??

I find it costly but I am a cheap skater

Now I assume Megan would have done what is needed to make it OEM

However, this one is a little cheaper

4 2 1 Racing Sport Manifold Exhaust Header for Nissan 91 92 93 NX 2 0L I4 SE XE | eBay

And, I went for this, this because I live overseas which leaves out a number of options cost wise.

However, the supplied bolts and nuts wheren't of a good quality but usable, in my case I had to replace the O2 spot, nothing special but what did happen, was the packed gaskets arrived bent, so I got cupper ones, not too bad on price and basically it ran well till the header started to leak a bit.

It turned out after correcting a friend did it was 2.3mm off and within 0.2mm now that would seal it with any gasket.

So, I don't know what would be better honestly, just wanted to let you know about this, what would be better overhere, is low shipping cost and that isn't offered everywhere.

For the cat back, I don't know about your mods, but I do know, the cat back can wait a little I yet have to become at the point where it starts to count, I do have a performance muffler though and a gutted cat. The working cat goes on for annual inspection.

You can usually find a 2.5" outlet header on ebay and the such, as I see that the Megan is only a 2 1/6" outlet.
The one richardwbb posted is actually great. 2" inlet 2.5" outlet.
Just do yourself a favor and buy a copper gasket for the primaries to secondaries, and OEM exhaust manifold gasket from GregV.

As far as the catback @LikeTheMovies is a VRS dealer and can get you WAY better prices
Here's his thread - http://www.sr20-forum.com/vendors/37239-vrs-exhaust-downpipes.html

Nx and b13 axle back section are different iirc. B-pipe is the same though.

what is the best sizing of of pipe to run on a stock sr20? i dont wanna be losing power.. :/

2.5" is good for N/A DE

Go 3 inch.

3inch. Hardly anybody sticks with stock cams. Cammed de with i/h/e/ecu do better with a 3inch.

2.5 inch would be fine for just a stock setup.

True but whyhave to buy different exhaust down the line. get 3 inch now and save later
