Default I couldn't take it any longer!

All the talk and the video's of after market exhaust's, along with my friends 370Z with a Stillen CBE, I finally pulled the trigger on one. I ordered an Invidia Gemini CBE. The stock exhaust isn't doing it for me anymore, and a little bump in HP & TQ will be nice too. I'll give a review with pics when I have it installed.

The stock exhaust is so quiet, Lexus quiet. I'm surprised you didn't go stillen.

My friend has a Stillen CBE, so I wanted something different. I also didn't want it too loud either. From what I understand the Invidia is a little deeper and quieter, so we will see.

I hope you enjoy those burnt tips sticking out about 5 inches past your bumper...

When did you get your Z? There's only so much you can take..especially being on these forums and seeing how much of a difference an aftermarket exhaust can make...both in sound, and power...Congrats and pulling the trigger I know that you won't regret it...

If you install it correctly they don't stick out at all and they offer SS tips if you don't want the Ti.

Funny... post 10 and post 22... proves it's an installation issue, or some HFCs are a tad longer than others.

Wow, those tips do look terrible in that color and sticking out that far.

I really don't think some highflow cats are 3-4 inches longer than stock. Maybe 1/4" max give or take.

and remember when the exhaust gets hot it expands and the tips will stick out more. Mine are flush when cold and about 1/2 out when hot.

I don't see how it proves that at all. Please clarify.

I ordered the rolled SS tips, I don't like the burnt look either. As far as the tips sticking, they are adjustable. Yes I have seen a couple that stick out but the other do not stick out that far. I will find out very soon and post pics with a review.
