Megan Cat-Back
Alright I have had my system on for about a month now and it keeps getting more and more "raspy" I have checked the bolts to make sure they are still tight andthey are....I did notice a leak from the aft connection on the system, so I bought another gasket and replaced it...still not luck in fixing the "raspyness" Is anyone else having this problem with the megan setup?
At idle and low RPM's it is hella deep and sounds like a purring kitten but the instant I get on the gas it sounds like crap....Any Suggestions? |
bigger resonator or different muffler.
|
welcome to the world of a broken in exhaust for a 4 banger
|
What if I did a Resonator delete?
I am going with a cat-less DP as well.... So this is normal? |

Ok thanks for the help Raven, It is appreciated!
|
dont forget to rep me...oh wait...nevermind lol

my megan was a bitch to get the connections to not leak, you have to line them up perfectly. mine is only raspy when the engine is cold. make sure you have the flanges lined up perfect

wait, so you don't like the rasp, but you're going to take out the resonator and get a dp without a cat? that will make it much, much worse.

Yea I know....sorry this is my first 4 banger since my first car....which was a 94 cavi that was stock...Did not really know what it would sound like I am just glad it does not sound like a honda lol :)
|
Yea and so far so good...Oh one more question about this set-up right now on de-cel I pop like crazy...almost sounds identical to an SRT-4 do you all have this "pop" as well?
|
yea its the unspent fuel in the exhaust being burned...happens when u have rich ass cars
|
Outstanding...would have figured I would be lean with the smaller pulley on there and the STG 2 tune...strange...oh wait could be that misfire problem again...lol...I can not wait to get my car fixed...
