the megan 4-1 is a shorty so u need this test pipe to run it. mines fits like a glove so far but just test fitted until i get magnaflow cat on the test pipe instead of just having a resonator. Did you get the combo, if not then it might be the wrong part(s), if u get pics i know everyone with an exhaust could help

Damn this really puts me off. I was going to get the same exact thing, from Megan Racing, and hook it up to my 04 DX. Now after hearing about this problem, I am a little iffy. I hope you guys find the solution so I can do this.

i found it out.............. the hole size on the test pipe that enters the header is that big on the stock on also, you use the stock bolts/spring things to conected it all and it fits fine. except 1 problem i have a small gas leek comeing out but its getting fixed, i also mesed up my o2s but its all getting fixed pics when its all done will be ^^
