Stock vs Nismo

Spartan 1771

I ran an OEM Nismo Cat-back for several years. The difference in sound is minor. This Cat-back is responsible for around half of the 18 HP difference between the base and Nismo, so you will gain a few horses. The idle at start-up will be louder, but it quiets as the car warms up. Under normal cruising conditions the difference in sound will be almost unnoticeable. Under heavy throttle you will hear a more aggressive note, but again, it's nothing crazy or unbearable. If all you want is a few more horses and a slightly more aggressive note without breaking the bank, it's a decant system.
