Good or Bad?
I'd say they are middle of the road. Not the best by any means, but not the worst.
I have a Megan exhaust, and coilovers.. They have served me will for a long time/miles. and yes i'd buy them again. Depends on what you use is going to be.
'06 MC, Cabrio, HO, 5 Speed,
M7-USS, Megan Racing Coilovers w/adj. Camper Plates & Exhaust, ASA-R1 18'' Wheels, Aero Kit, H-Sport adj. Control Arms & Sway Bar, TSW adj. End Links, Helix Short Shifter, VIP Engine Damper, DDM Air Intake, Hidden Fog Lights, Custom Vinyl Work thru Out..
I didn't need that 401K anyway!!
They're not Walmart coilovers, but they're far from Pottery Barn. Probably closer to Target on that scale. Cheap and good but not great.

so someone on a budget but not trying to build a track-spec monster just fun on some twisties its a good choice?
It's good, Alta also another option. Cobalt is cheap too, but second hand is the nest option in certain things.

Stay away from Alta. Too many bad experiences.

Yes. If I recall, Megans come with camber plates, too.Originally Posted by 0351reed

camber plates are good. there ain't nothing better than at least 2 degrees of negative camber in front. I have 1.5 degrees on my street setup and its very nice.
H-Sport 19mm rsb, Koni Sport shocks, IE fixed camber plates, NM cat-back exhaust, NM torque arm bushing, NM SSK w/NM cover plate, EBC Red Stuff pads and WMW ss brake lines, coco mats, Alta 4" antenna, hardwired V1, Michelin Pilot Super Sports.
I admit Megan coilovers are not the top dog, but have sold too many of them to happy customers for street cars to say they are no good. I even had one customer that has been racing on them for a couple years and I drove his car and ran down a turbo 911, so not too bad on track.
The megans do include front camber plates and rear upper shock mounts.
So for the money not bad, if you want to get the best save up and get some of our custom KW's.

Well I just got a Bonus of quite a bit and I needed to spreadload the parts. Wife wasn't too thrilled about me spending 2300 of parts/tools on my car in a week. Maybe If I went pro, but for itz and giggles I'l stick to mediocre.

Hi,
Hopefully it's ok if I tag on the end of this thread. I am interested in replacing my shocks (2005 MCS) and originally was thinking of using Koni FSD's. If I use Koni's, do I need to replace springs as well? I am thinking Koni's + springs will be close in cost to Megan Racing coil overs. This is a street only car (if I ever get to the track it will not be often). Thanks for suggestions/recommendations.
