ive heared people mentioning that these ebay pipes are poor fitting and bad quality. but its not that hard to bend a pipe and weld 2 flanges on. anyone had experience with these guys?

I had Megan Racing pipes fitting. First time not one problem at all. Really well made and damn cheap.

where did you get theom from? ebay?

just got a set of these will be fitting them this week, they look like theyre well enough made tho, got mine for £90, bargain. Bending pipes and getting them to line up prperly is harder than it looks also requires specialised kit when it comes to stainless doubt if you could get someone in the trade to make them for the price theyre asking.

where where where!!?!!!

heard alot of problems with these I got the genuine 1's of chris getgreddy in the traders section

frasergtti ebay exact same ones mate just lucky on the bidding thats all.

Spot on some fit and some do not these are basically MEGAN copies and are very hit and miss in the quality of fitting

 

MEGAN fit like a glove and the grade of steel used is also far superior

ah ok. many thanks

look decent quality to me from the picture and spec... so cheap as well

well by the looks of it those are actually Megan racing due to the plaque but those will not be the ones that turn up on the doorstep, Megan racing pipes sell for around £300 and have a very distinctive plaque which seems to be missing on the copies :rolleyes:

Agree with you there Ryan....

 

I bought an ebay set and were about 6-8" out of line..as u know after fitting mine :smash: ....But u managed to apply some gentle persuession ;)

 

They have now "reset" into place after the heat has flexed them to the correct position but Ebay is a bit of a "Hit n Miss" with car parts...some you win and some you loose.

 

I dont think fitting of the decats is the biggest problem though...

Its more of a worry/reality check to see if your old turbo studs SNAP on removal or if ur tubs blow once fitted....IMHO

 

All in all its a lovely bit of kit...and you WILL notice the power/response difference :)

Bought these pipes from that trader about a month ago, had a Megan plaque on them, look like extremly good quality to me only fitting issue i had was the hangers for the small rubber mounts were a good bit of. The worst part of it all was removing the precats :wack:

Yep, bought a set and they fitted perfectly. Only tiny problem was the hangers. But a bit of muscle and that fixed that :D
