370z TANABE EXHAUST and Y PIPE DYNO and VIDS

htt760 · 07-16-2010, 01:37 PM

To be honest I was a little hesitant at first and thinking is this TOO BLUE? but Im glad I did because everyone who sees the blue always raves about it. Thanks Stealth for the compliments.

Where are you located in socal?

HTT760, Great Video... I'm liking this exhaust more and more...

Did you have fitment issues like needing to cut heat shields etc.. I also assume you have the tanabe Y pipe but with stock cats... Also hows the sounds from inside the cabin???

The dyno charts show awesome gains... does drive feel a lot better, torquier...

Thanks again for awesome vid...

ALthough I dynoed it with the y pipe.. the video only shows the CBE but with the Y pipe you can def feel that torque kick in because the pants to seat feeling is like ""whoaaaa".. The ypipe also adds a little bit more sound as well which sounds even more better IMO.

Fitment was pretty straight forward, and should be able to remove and replace.

In side the cabin , you def know you have exhaust but you get that feeling where its not to loud but not quiet either. WARNING when you get this exhaust, your MPG will go down because you will love the sound right at 4000k and your rev match will happen much more frequent because you know it just sounds so good when done right.

Question: the stock exhaust inlet after the Y-pipe only appears to be 2.3" or so max, but the Tanabe y-pipe is around 2.75" at the same junction. Wouldn't this hurt flow a bit? I thought I had heard a few times before that they need to be pretty close in size, or is the stock inlet to the mid-pipe bigger than it seems?

HTT760, Thanks for all the info. Do you know if this exhaust can be purchased now? I've seen a few websites but they all seems to have them in stock in August.

BTW. Did you have any air intakes when you made that video. I think from a previous post you seem to had the Status Elite intakes. The SE intakes is meant to sound awesome, (not sure about the performance gains though) but just wondering is it worth having as the exhaust sound may drown the intake growl.

Thanks for all you responses to my questions, you've convinced me on the Tanabe CBE..

Pl8,

In the video is the TCBE Only with no y pipe, Install was straight forward, and used the OEM rubber gourmets ( USE GLASS CLEANER TO LOOSEN THEM UP ). I got photos here to see. As for the SE Intakes, I feel they are a mid range intake with top end pull. (huge velocity stacks welded in) Making a nice heat sheild for them. I got the prototypes so no heat shield currently. As for the intake growl and exhaust, you'll hear the intakes in the front, then flyby and youll hear the exhaust. (Intakes make a whistle suction, while exhaust is just perfect to hear both)

Anamoly,
I'm not sure on this, but from past experiences, big ypipe with big exhaust = torque loss but decent hp gain up top, but large y pipe with a nice muffled/packed exhaust = Exhaust makes hp while the y pipe makes torque best of both worlds :-)

If you have measured the stock vs reading on tanabes website for their y pipe then you could be right.
