Thanks for the answers. I've seen pictures and read about them but I was after someone who may have bought one and running it on their 370Z. Much better to get a view from an owner than a sales pitch from the makers or reseller.

There's a single clip on youtube YouTube - 370z exhaust sound which certainly doesn't sound stock to me and the Scorpion is about half the price of Stillen/Berk over here.

As for asking about British made exhaust, there's people on here who aren't from the US and also people who have parts imported through overseas resellers and personal exports so thought it was a reasonable question.

Cheers guys.

hi mate, i am the owner of the black 370z on scorpion thread, so i have the system on my car and i am more than happy with it, it does increase power and performance a bit, but the main improvement is the superb sound my car has now, it really does sound like a highly tuned sports car now and you would not be disappointed if you purchased one, hope this helps with your decision, thanks kev

My point was that the exhaust was made in the UK by a UK company for most of the chaps over in the US, its a very tame exhuast that they havent heard about.

You also obviously have never spoken to Mitz if you think he will give you reseller sales pitch, just offer you sounds advise, the only reason he got Scorpion involved was to offer UK owners a viable alternative to importing an exhuast

But I'm sure Kev can answer all your questions as he is the owner of the system so knows better than us.
