I looked up a few exhaust and these just caught my eye. I like aam short tails , Motordyne, tomei , amuse exhaust, FI is nice as well. But tomei and motordyne just seem extremely nice. Good sound, loud and seems like exhaust I would truly enjoy. I'm a very picky person.lol

But I just can't decide yet.

I'm used to how loud it is and it doesn't bother me anymore or am I going deaf?


p.s. stay tuned for updates in the coming week/s when I'll replace a bunch top secret stuff.
So you enjoy it day to day then correct? If I do the tomei I want to get the motordyne Y-pipe . I have a 2015 Z so my warranty is still on so i can't do much :/

I run a Berk Technologies exhaust and like it quite a bit. After having it 5 years on 2 different 370Zs, I am ready to change. I am ordering a Fast Intentions with 12" resonators tomorrow.

Nothing looks worse than a single exhaust with dual cutouts in the rear bumper. If you go with the Tomei, please do it right and fill the extra cutout or it will be ricey for sure.

define "rice" ... tomei exhaust is very light in weight and gives the car decent power gains.. good for cars that competes and want to shave as much weight as possible to get better times.. IMO that's not rice..

OP.. these are the 2 exhaust im currently debating also and it really comes down to what you really looking for.. weight saving? looks? sound? power gains? etc.. dont let others talk you into getting the exhaust you would wanted less.. because in the end it's your car and it will cost you more money to change your mind and get the exhaust you wanted more in the first place..

essentially every decent aftermarket exhaust will give you roughly the same gains in HP/TQ.

it boils down to what do your ears get wet to

I have an FI and I love it. Sounds great and looks badass from the rear. When I was doing my exhaust research, it came down to FI and ARK. They both sound and look amazing.

A local has the shockwave with ART pipes. It's loud but not obnoxious.

+1 for no single exits on this car. Keep it dual!

I have no experience with the Tomei or Motordyne, but absolutely have to agree that Fast Intentions is awesome. Was skeptical at first, but have to admit it's the highest quality exhaust system I've ever bought.

The Tomei looks like something you'd see hanging off the back of a Honda Civic with a primer coated rear bumper and shocker sticker on the back window. Total rice.
