Default Anything Like garage line x pipe / midpipe out there?

So I've tried contacting garage line quite a few times with no luck. I'm looking for pretty much exactly what they offer. Something I can bolt between my Berks HFC and stock muffler at 2.5" Just to open up a little more airflow and tone. I want to get rid of the H pipe the Nismo comes with and better air flow without breaking the bank. I've looked around the sponsored intake and exhaust, googled etc. is there any other company making something like this that I can actually buy?

Thanks,

Nef

Try contacting Raj at GarageLine using
( Click to show/hide )
. He was easy to deal with, responsive, and gave me a great deal around Christmastime last year.

Good luck!

Thank you sent him an e-mail and if for some reason I can't get a hold of their product. Is there anything similar in the market I may have missed all I'm seeing is full exhausts. I just want 2.5 all the way back to the muffler and to get rid of the H pipe.

Ya thanks memphis that was the only other setup I found. Two things I don't like about it one of course is price that's almost the price of a full exhaust and is full exhaust for some brands. The second is that it is an H pipe design I really want to try the X pipe because that hiss people complain a lot about sounds like it's coming directly from stock H pipe Changing to the Berks made it a little louder but pushing more air to the H pipe would cause that effect. I didn't have it on my 13 but I believe that was a y pipe nismo design. It has been on this model since day one having the H pipe and getting underneath and listening I truly believe the X pipe will alleviate a lot of that.

Plus I'm on a budget lots of things to do with limited funds Still need to pick up an M370, finish the exhaust, decide between Uprev or ECUTEK and my exterior mods. I'm a little impatient to say the least and want her looking and feeling the way I want as soon as possible. Exhaust, m370 and tune is what I'm focused on now. Only hiccup is the Exhaust atm. The others are readily available.

Understand completely. Hopefully Raj will get back with you soon.

Also, since you mentioned it, I'll give a nod to EcuTek. I'm using it and really like it. 4 maps, plus valet. You've got a MT, so that means launch control and flat-foot shifting.

Good luck and let us know if you get things worked out with the exhaust.

AAM competition axle back is $600 pricy for an axle back but the sound is incredible - pair with there s-line mid pipe and berks hfc =heaven


Handcrafted exhaust-


Mid pipe - AAM


A pic of it being hand made - thanks AAM for sending! Was so pumped to see my exhaust being made !

Ya that's the problem the H pipe and midpipe combo from AAM is 850... I'm not looking to spend that kind of cash just for a mid pipe and H pipe especially since I want an x pipe appreciate the pics though it does look nice but I can't say I think it's worth 1450 not including shipping I think I would just go full Fast Intentions if I am looking to replace whole exhaust.

Fast intentions - wait 3-4 weeks - spend more $
Or
AAM ship in a week half -

I had a x pipe custom exhaust setup before this - trust me you want to stay H pipe - throttle response is better - I felt a slight delay heasation with xpipe - installed h pipe and it was instant better trottle response - no more sluggish - noticed biggest diff at hwy 80mph speeds though - go h-pipe what ever you do - AAM build quality/gains is worth every $

Sound clips -

I may consider it but the new nismo has an H pipe, not a Y, and that throttle lag you speak of is more prominent. You say you've tried the X pipe setup? I read nothing but good reviews and responses on the garage line setup. However if they don't actually start selling them anymore AAM seems to be my only answer for what I'm looking for.

Not really interested in changing the muffler just want a little bit deeper tone and open it to 2.5 all the way through.

Again I appreciate the input

Thank you yes I read that thread and probably 20 more like it. Can't really compare a 2010 thread to a 2015 setup though. This is all going to be trial and error for me since they just changed the exhaust setup on this year. I don't really need help choosing I know what I want I just need help finding it. Need the garageline x pipe and mid pipe or the closest I can come to it. Next in line would be AAM H pip and midpipe.
