Why are Megan exhausts so hated

Waiz

I generally stay away from anything Megan out of principle, exhaust or any other part...

DEpointfive0

Why principle?

Waiz

Typically anything they make will be of the cheapest quality with no regard for purpose

Test Pipes, Coilovers, you name it they make it but do so in the cheapest and least amount of R&D possible.

It's exactly what's wrong with the aftermarket industry nowadays, cheap knockoffs from China

Would you say the same about Stillen?

Waiz

No not at all.

I run a set of their HFC's and they are good quality

DEpointfive0

Weird, because for sure Stillen cranks out products, their the first to make exhausts and everything... Their exhausts are KNOWN to knock the rear(maybe its more mid) crossmember, then they revised it... And I have the revised version, the welds are rusting and it still knocks...
And I must say, Stillen's customer service sucks... I say this from my own experience, recent and past...

Waiz

My HFC's are fine, I have seen some pretty poor Megan welds on their TP's. I have never bought anything directly from Stillen but they have always been nice to me when I have talked to them directly.

When it comes to anything Megan I don't ever consider any of their products for my own vehicle (but that's just me and I've been called an "elitist" here before ) but by all means if you like it then that's all that matters.

Just let me know what the exhaust looks like after a year or two...

Same. Mainly because I do not like the sound the exhaust puts out. I'm not sure about the quality of the metal or where it was welded etc.
