What is the weight vs. the stock system?

DriveLineEric 11-24-2009 07:07 PM

EDIT: The total weight savings is about 8lbs from what we've been told by MXP.

Really? Can you verify this? I was led to believe otherwise O_o;

The total weight of the MXP exhaust is 56lbs. From what we have seen, the factory exhaust weighs about 62lbs (however, my source could be a little off).

Bump for the best sounding exhaust on here

Stock exhaust weighs 54 lbs. See link for details.

So it's an actual increase in weight...weird.

Not too bad, it's on the low part of the car so it's not ridiculous or anything, but I didn't expect an aftermarket exhaust to be heavier than stock..

+2 lbs. for this sort of exhaust layout is really good, imo.

From what we have been told, the walls of the piping are bit thicker to withstand the abuse of daily driving. Being that the exhaust itself has a full 3 year warranty, they wanted to construct the most durable, high performance system on the market. With that said, some things had to be sacrificed.

phelan 11-25-2009 03:19 PM

*shrug*

Not knocking it or anything, really, it was just confusing. I still really like it :tup:

DriveLineEric 11-25-2009 03:40 PM

Being that we have never physically weighed the factory Z34 exhaust, it is hard for us to make a factual comparison. We are solely going off the information provided to us.

By the way, after a decade of being on forums and seeing close to a million avatars, yours has to be by far the most unique. congrats, LOL!

The Stillen CBE is also heavier than stock.

DriveLineEric 12-08-2009 01:21 PM

The first few units should be arriving any day now :D

DriveLineEric 01-19-2010 07:03 PM

bump!

370zForever 01-31-2010 06:07 PM

I love this exhaust....The thing is 9 pounds lighter than the stillen exhaust. Meaning it will be a smaller weight distribution improvement, but it's lighter. It's a bit down on power by about 10 bhp, but I think the sound makes up for it...

Can anyone provide more info???

earwicker7 02-01-2010 08:09 PM

Looks like a really nice exhaust.

However... would it kill a company to proofread their ads? It's got a "duel" exhaust??? Are we talking fighting chickens or car parts? Also, in the same line it says it is a "True-duel exhaust"; obviously, that should be "True dual-exhaust", as a misplaced hyphen really changes the meaning.

Some people might think I'm being anal, but stuff like this makes a difference with many consumers like myself, especially when you're talking about stuff that is arguably a luxury item. Would you buy a diamond watch from someone advertising a "Krazy Good Deel!"?

I hear what you're saying, we are the same way. The problem really resides in the people who make these ad's- manufacturers/distributors who's second (or third) language is English. I think the data and overview of the features are really what's most important, which is why we didn't bother to correct them, or even request something more appropriate. However it's not just MXP that's does this, Tomei is far worse:

tomei expreme - Google Search

... They named one of their biggest product line "Expreme".

:eek:

BTW, I know it's not your fault... there is only so much distributors can do;)

DriveLineEric 02-02-2010 03:44 PM

We have just received new shipments of the MXP exhausts! Let us know if any of you want pricing.

i have this exhaust with the MXP resonated test pipes... i love it! but now i need a tune... tired of the eau d'octane scent and carbon on the rear bumper...

exhaust sound is intense, and not bad at all once cruising on the interstate. i have a video clip of mine on the dyno somewhere on this forum... i'll review it later.

DriveLineEric 05-17-2010 11:34 PM

Please do!! We'd love to read your review.

DriveLineEric 05-18-2010 12:09 PM
