What's wrong with Agency power exhausts? There have been a few threads on here stating how nice they are. I've had one on my Genesis coupe as well, it was pretty good.

The 350z guys love the Agency Power single exhaust.

Meh.. After going to SEMA this year I found out that even a lot of the JDM brands do their manufacturing in China or Taiwan, then simply do the finishing work in house. For the most part, we're all going to end up with Chinese crap on our cars (even OEMs manufacture parts in China) so using that as a reason to not like a brand is pointless.

I don't support people who knock off people's parts. Several of their parts are an exact replica of Kartboy products.

Nothing, buy Megan Racing. Same product, just cheaper

I'll see if I still have pics of what I had to do to get my Megan headers to fit on my IS300. It required hammering the firewall in. :rofl2:

Chuck might be somewhat of a negative nancy, but you gotta respect and understand that he's an opinionated dude who demands high quality.

Somewhat, yeah. The guys who make knockoff parts are bad for enthusiasts in the big picture. It takes money out of the pockets of the guys who actually do the r&d.

Kingbaby 01-25-2014 09:05 PM

Buy a corvette

I had that one. The nicest sounding exhaust I had for my G. That exhaust fits g37/370z's btw.

I had Agency power exhaust. It wasn't that bad but I sold it after awhile. It seemed that everytime I reach higher rpm, exhaust gets quieter?? At least that's how I felt and I got really annoyed. And that infamous farting sound it made when the car is closer to stopping.

I had no issues with my Megan cat back.it was a dual exhaust. Everyone told me to stay away but I loved the sound. Never had any issues with it at all. Unlike others I would recommend it.

I drive my car daily with the Agency Power system and I'm really happy with it. With test pipes it may be overkill and if I add headers in the future I would probably swap to something more mild to even out the tone. Its easy to say I'm biased, in the same respect I carry just about every exhaust on the market other than FI and this is the one I chose.

How well does it fit the 370z? I had one on my 350z and loved it. Been trying to find a single for the 370z without paying the price for an amuse single. This might be a great alternative if it fits well without major modifications.
