Possible group buy on megan racing dp/mp combo?

Hey everyone,
Have been talking to a few people about downpipes and midpipes, and I was telling them about what I have been using. It's a megan racing downpipe/midpipe combo I bought off of beay for 90 bucks plus 40 shipping. I contacted Megan Racing to see if they would set up a group buy if enough people were interested, here is what they said:

Hi Jeff,
Thanks for your email and your support on our products. YES, we are very
familiar with group buy.
Here is the deal I can offer:
5 sets - 125.00 shipped
10 sets - 110.00 shipped
20 sets - 100.00 shipped

fortunately we are kind of over stock with these pipes, so I'm able to give
out a special offer for you guys. Everything is for inside the usa only.

Also, we are working on full suspension kit on the FD3S, so possible to
check if anyone is interested to try out? This is how we work new things
out, the suspension kit is MSRP around $1000-1100 per set, the first 2 sets,
we will kind of give a blow out price for $750.00 shipped, and then if
people like them, then you guys can arrange a group buy again for another
good deal.

Thank you

Calvin
Megan Racing

So if anyones interested let me know and we can get this going! Thanks everyone
Jeff

Anyone interested? This is a 3" stainless steel mirror polished downpipe midpipe combo with METAL gaskets. I currently run the set on my FD.

Before everyone jumps for joy... do a search for the Megan racing dp/mp combo and see what turns up. The price is very good, but the fitment is something to be desired. I have this combo and the build quality etc... Is fine but you will need to grind away some of the welds on the dp flange and the mp <-> dp flange doesn't meet up perfect.

Don't mean this post to ward anyone off from buying this combo. But if you do, expect to put a little extra effort into getting them to fit.

Just thought you should know,
Mitch

Thumbs up

I have this set. I had to bore out a mounting hole (or two) on the engine side of the downpipe for proper fit.

-=Honestly it was a PITA, but I'd rather do the work than pay $200+ for just a downpipe=-

I didn't install the midpipe (didn't want to have boost creep) So the downpipe with the provided gasket will bolt up to the stock midpipe. If I could do it all over again I would have just test fit it before I set it off for thermal coating. All in all a great buy.
