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..

I am in between both. I like AAM short tails also. but yeah i will make the decision off what I will like. Im the one who will have to live with it and drive it. But what exhaust do you have ?

it boils down to what do your ears get wet to

also the weight of the exhaust ...

to each and their own.. not everybody is building a show car.. for some of the people here, looks is not their first priority nor is sound..

i am currently on stock nismo exhaust.. i am leaning toward the shockwave exhaust and pair it up with the ppe long tube headers.. just because im afraid of the titanium tomei exhaust cracking on me since i have full solid suspension and motor/tans mount bushings... also the pipe by the canister hangs a little too low for my liking... but that weight saving is soooo tempting lol

if u are going for sounds.. make sure u hear it first in person or online because a tons of exhaust set up will have a lot of rasp

:iagree:

OP, post up in the regional section of this site. Go to a meet and check out the exhausts in person. You will get a much better idea of what you like and don't like.

Yes, I have the tomei and I'm happy with the sound/performance. Some of the downsides are scraping from time to time(fix it with clamps is what I've done),getting racing (not ricing) loud when you step on it, which can be bad if you are in the city. Also, I haven't found a rear 370z bumper suited for single exhaust - solution: fill the extra hole :)

I know what i want now. I ordered the AAM short tails. I am going to get a custom straight pipe with it. I seen a video and it is sweet!

I love my FI Non-Res CBE, sounds great, looks great! I think it all comes down to personal preference. I will say that the videos on YouTube don't really do them justice. If you can find someone that already has it and listen in person, you will have a better idea what you like and don't like. Good luck!

I have to be honest I first thought the tomei sounded like **** until I saw some good video clips. Now I would love to hear that with my FI long tubes, screaming loud. The only thing that would stop me from getting that exhaust is the single exit and oversized muffler...

I think of cars like the fd rx7 and supra when I see the big single exhaust, but my shocker sticker was on my side window on my ek :) true fact
