That's correct. The shop that installed it didn't mention having to do anything, but they did say it was close.

Perfect. I wanted to go with the 3" FI no cat exhaust but when I spoke with Tony they didn't make them yet for the g37 :( I'd like to hear how your setup sounds.

I have the same setup and it installed with no issues. I had to bend in the heat shields a little bit where the downpipes meet the flanges, but that was it.

It sounds wonderful, but it's not loud. People may get bent out of shape hearing this, but it's the perfect "adult" volume. You can drive it with co-workers or clients in the car and not be "that guy." :rofl2: If my car weren't a DD I may have considered non-catted, but I drive mine every day.

And yours is with cats correct? Would love to hear a setup with no cats on boost.

Correct, I had Tony put cats in mine and ceramic coat the cans black. Mine's the unobtrusive version. It's not loud. That doesn't mean it's quiet. :rofl2:

1:05 in this video is my setup on low boost. Dyno noise gets in the way a little, but this is the FI Catted 3" TDX

I'd like to think we're helping Tony sell some more 3" exhausts with all of these turbo kits. ;)

Good point! They are great exhausts. I get nothing but compliments on the sound. It is nice and deep with no rasp. Tame during cruise and loud when you want it. I'll try to get a cold start video...that would help do it a little more justice!

nobody wants to be "that guy" :rofl2:

I'll be "that guy" if I can get a few more ponies out of a noncatted exhaust

You would definitely get some more ponies for sure and honestly, I don't think it would be THAT loud. I went with the cats more for elimination of the gas smell. At the time, I was living in Northern VA where they are sticklers for emissions.

I think the ultimate combo would be the 3" Catted TDX with a set of electronic cutouts before the cats. If only those stupid things weren't known to leak!

I guess in my excitement I forgot ask, but will my Z be the first to have your 3" down pipes and 3" exhaust in concert with your TT kit? I don't remember us discussing it. I can't wait to see the results! Let the good times roll...

Your's and nklear's car will both have 3" Down pipes and our full 3" CBE. In terms of which one is finished first, it will probably be a tie.

Thanks, Tony

Tony, to answer to your question about the exhaust, I might have to stick with my titanium exhaust since they are my sponsor and they use my z as their show car. But please let me know what you think.

Our plan is to offer our 370Z-TT-TDX-CBE for the G37 coupe in 2.75". It will be available as soon as our TT Kit is released for the car. We opted to go with 2.75" vs. 3" to keep the interior noise even quieter. 2.75" is lighter and will also have more ground clearance. (Not that our 3" exhaust lacks ground clearance). Given the performance level 99% of G37 Coupe customers will be at, they will not outgrow the dual 2.75".

Stay tuned, more to come.

Thanks, Tony
