SO I bought a new 370z about two weeks ago. I wanted to get a loud exhaust. I have looked all over but seems berks has the loudest so far.

Long tubes and straight pipes.
For keeping cats get some Stillen Headers, HFC's (prob Berk), and then straight pipes.

Yep, the straighter the pipe (or lack of resonators) the louder it is. Now, this does not mean it will be a "nice" sound but it will be loud.

Not to mention you're in California, if you want loud, you better be ready for cops to watch over you like a hawk. |

My FI with 12 inch resonators has a good volume to it and Im adding HFCs so it will get even louder. I think Red370 has Berk HFCs and Stillen CBE and I think mine is louder than his without the HFCs on mine yet and will be with them on for sure. So if loud is what you want I think FI can get loud but in a good way.

Ya know, i'll be honest, I just think the VQ37 in general is just a really quiet engine, seriously. At idle, with various exhausts i've heard, it purrs like a kitten, HFC's or not. You can barely even tell the car is running. I was excited when i first put my Stillen exhaust on because it was loud and raucous, then after a trip to albuquerque, it burned in and quieted down considerably, pissed me off really. I think the only way you'll get a loud sound is with the long tube headers and no mufflers.

FI with 12" resonators and HFC's, i think that'll put you where you wanna be.

Are you serious ? I just bought my Z one month ago and I just purchased a JWT Dual Pop Charger to hopefullly give it a little more performance and sound. I have seen on the net Z owner taking the stock muffler off for a throaty sound. I did not want to go to that extreme.
Where did you drill in the muffler ? |
