Lmfao!

IMO, buying an exhaust just for the power gains is silly, you buy it for the sexy exhaust note and the little push comes as a plus, even if it didn't yield any gains, I'd still keep my exhaust

Yeah I used to think that way when I had my Civic with a motor swap but don't feel that way anymore. That's why I sold that car and bought the Z. I'm used to paying big money for a few hp which was worth it for a car that only weighed 2000lbs and 200whp but not worth it for this one. If I could make the car completely silent I would, I don't need to be drawing that type of attention anymore. Don't get me wrong, I love the way these cars sound, a hell of alot better then my honda did, just don't need it to enjoy this car since I commute so far to work every day.

Thanks for everyone's thoughts....I just wanted to see the different opinions out there

True, but you can still rock a decent sounding exhaust with some (18" resonators maybe? :stirthepot: haha) and have her as your daily, not annoying what so ever.. a catback on it's own will only make the Z sound like it should've ;)

Again, just sharing my thoughts :)

CBE will make your car sound way better, if you end up turbocharging or pushing more power in the engine department you want better flow in the exhaust also.

he is correct sir, I've gained around 30-35 rwhp from just FI HFC and FI CBE.

yes it's worth the money.... :facepalm:
