Custom exhaust [Review]
 

So, the stock exhaust was very disappointing. Living here in Texas, there are Ford minivans that sound sportier than the 370z. I went to some random shop and asked them to make my exhaust louder. Tell me what you think of the sound?
The sound is way deeper than the stock exhaust and way much louder. The first time I started it up.. WOW! :happydance: I couldn't be any happier. It really woke my baby up. The loudness is just right.. I was afraid that it would sound annoying, but wow. It's simply music to my ears!

Yeah, nice job!! Well, not you...lol....but to the the shop that built you this. It sounds pretty good. I can't point my finger on it but it kind of sounds like the BERK or F.I. for that matter.

Sounds a lot like a Berk, Stillen or FI for that matter. Two thumbs up to the installers. It would be great to get some details and pics up for folks to see what was done. It would be hot to see a dyno too, lol. One never knows...

Nice Improvement Gunzero.
Just keep saving what ever you can for the next Mod.

Do you have pics, I would like to see what they did just out of curiosity.

What changes did they make to the exhaust? New muffler, larger piping etc...

sounds very nice, but the video is kind of echo-y

Actually guys :) I just wanted to find out what you guys would say. Yea it does sound like a Berk/Stillen exhaust.
*prepares to get flamed* This is all they did. Got the idea from ddharon.
I am really happy.. Doesn't matter if I got any gains or not. It sounds delicious.
I am saving up for more important things in life. So this $20.00 mod was well worth it.

So why did you pay them to do that? LOL That's a very simple DIY :)

It does sound good, though.

Its that the only thing you can afford then good for you!

I don't have any tools! >.<
Lol thanks Triple's.. being 19 and jobless I can't afford a full CBE :p

sorry man but what am I looking at in that pic? They did what for 20 bucks? I'm a newb! Sounds great btw!

they added spacer washer to make the exhaust leak a little

Yea just replace the gasket with 4-5 washers and that's it!

I'll keep saying it, the stock exhaust really comes alive with some test pipes

As long as you know its not going to add gains and atleast you didnt gut it and ruin a piece of equipement, nothing wrong with this. Its a good mod for what its suppose to do, change the sound. Any fumes getting into the car at standstill?

It sounds good.

While it does sound good, it is sort of an... er... interesting mod.

Yes, it's creative. Gotta give it that.

Do you get any rattling/buzzing/raspy noises?

Instead of spending 20 bucks on that mod you did. You could of achieved the same results for free.
Just borrow a drill and a 3/4 inch drill bit.

Drill & Paint:

$30 and you can go back to stock sound in seconds.

Oh no you didn't!! :bowrofl:

10$ over budget. sorry

ng...:facepalm:

I don't get it...what is that?

It's a cutout. You put it into your exhaust piping, and run stock until you take the plate off the other side, then the exhaust flows freely out of there making for very loud noise and HP gains (in cars with enough air intake to not need the back pressure).

Yea, drilling holes in the exhaust wasn't a good idea. Welded some pipes here and there to solve this.

I would rather spend $20 and add washers than drill a hole in my exhaust. Sounds good man.

wtf dude

Since air intakes cost alot. Here's another DIY to drill holes.

There's no explanation except insanity :bowrofl:

Is that the paint bubbling from the heat? rofl

Nope, those are the welds...hahaha

:iagree: :bowrofl::roflpuke2:

I don't see any sharpie marks for were to drill the holes.

Are we talking about the same thing? Look about 4 inches above the pipe outlet on the rear fascia, it looks like paint bubbling.

Thought you were talking about the welds on the pipes. They look like shit.


Those bubbles are huge, must be a reflection or something.

No rasp, rattling, or any other retarded sound. Just the clean deep tone of the VQ going burble burble burble VROOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
Just drove around today using 3/4 of my tank :D

no fumes! it still goes through the muffler you can feel the pressure going through it. and cold start smokes come out the muffler :D

damn this sounds good. I am in law school and broke when it comes to mods, especially 1,000 for an exhaust. I might have to steal that idea. Any more details on the install or part # would be cool. I would appreciate it. Thanks and again, sounds sweet.
