Guess I got lucky a few years ago with a partial sponsorship but I will say that it is worth every penny. I have had it now for 2 years + and it still looks new.

It's definitely an option for me, depending on which route I choose to go with my exhaust once I decided to upgrade from the Tanabe. Ark and MXP are definitely high on my list.

I started off with Tanabe. I loved the look but the not the sound. Either way you will not be disappointed with MXP just ask Mik3G37S.

Then your options are limited, in a way. Ark and Fast Intentions have AWD specific exhaust but you can have a muffler shop modify just about anything to fit your car

What about Megan racing, I haven't found anyone with an X Sedan who has one installed.

That's just another rendition of the TopSpeed, Manzo, Beluga type Y back sets. For their MSRP of $884 you can do much better w/ the other vendors including ebay.
FWIW I think I've had the TopSpeed the longest around here at over 4 years. I just added a fresh Y pipe and Resonated test pipes so I was able to get under there and closely observe how everything is holding up.

All the pipes and flanges cleaned up well, and with some regular polishing of the stainless steel you can keep it looking fresh. If you live in the rust belt where winters are brutal and you deal w/ a lot of road salt you would need to be much more vigilant in that regard.

The sound from just the Y-back is very good, and for the price (if you can get one for around $500) is a great bang for the buck.

TBH I AM basing this on my set, there may have been some changes in quality, and I know my original 4.5" tips have gone down to 4".

And these will be a plug & play on AWD Sedans.

So the Megan Racing is made by the same company as the others you mentioned only with Megan Racing label? Very good, that's what I expected.Thanks for your knowledge!

It appears there is a difference between the Megan Racing and Manzo 2.5" vs 2.25" though.

I assume there are subtle differences to keep the different versions, well, different
If this is the true price on this set that would be crazy, and this Manzo is listed as 2.25 If the cans really come looking like that with that big welding flash on the back I would paint them black ASAP (although I'd paint them black regardless, lol)
Manzo Exhaust System Infiniti G35/G37 Sedan (2007-2013) CBS-IG074DV2

And this one lists 2.5" But this one COMES w/ a new Y-pipe, and it lists the Y-pipe to midpipe fitting to both be 3" which should eliminate any rasp buildup w/ mismatched piping.

The latter is not for an X sedan though.

I've had the Invidia Q300 paired with FI RHFC and Stillen Headers then switched CBE to ARK GRIP 2.5" and I can say both were great setups. I like the ARK a little more, but the Invidia was awesome too.
