Exotic sound?
 
This may be in another thread I tried the search button but I could not find what I was looking for. SO I am just wondering what is the most exotic sounding exhaust combination out there to date? Any help would be great and if this has been asked before then just shoot me the link and that will be that ha

ZPhycho 09-07-2010 07:42 PM

your question is going to be answered by opinions your best bet is to search you-tube videos of differernt set up's and go with what you like but IMO the Meistershaft GTS with HFC sounds exotic

370ZBLACK09 09-07-2010 08:00 PM

Meisterschaft is too raspy for my taste I want something deep with good tone, haha I am complicated just a warning :happydance:

ZPhycho 09-07-2010 08:03 PM

haha ok maybe try the HKS Hi-Power sounds pretty deep to me, also a price range of what your looking to spend might help recomendations.

370ZBLACK09 09-07-2010 08:07 PM

Price is not an issue so recommend anything and I've looked at HKS Hi-Power and I like it but I want to see what it sounds like with Berk HFC's and so far no one has posted a video of that. I also like the Top Secret exhaust system

mattjk 09-07-2010 08:14 PM

Exotic? I like the Saclam, but may be too raspy for you.

I really don't like any of the other exhausts, except for the 5zigen.

If you like the 5zigen sound, the top speed exhaust is a copy of it and sounds very similar.
check this thread for sound clips.

I've decided on the top speed exhaust mainly for it's sound.

ZPhycho 09-07-2010 08:19 PM

well if you like the Hi-Power go with it you've heard what the HFC's do for other systems most of the time (Deeper, louder, less rasp) so I don't see why that would change with the HKS system

370ZBLACK09 09-07-2010 08:21 PM

I'll most likely be going with HKS Hi-Power or Berks but I really hope they still arent having the long *** waiting problems like they were before

ZPhycho 09-07-2010 08:23 PM

just shop around for the HKS might luck out and find someone with it in stock, if not then yeah your going to have to wait a lil bit for it but in the end it will be worth it because you got what you wanted not what could get to you the fastest.

370ZBLACK09 09-07-2010 08:26 PM

oh I found the HKS in stock in several places I was talking about the Berks CBE that has the long wait times

HATED1 09-07-2010 08:43 PM

i too am in the same position, so far Berks CBE and ARk mixed in with the BERK HFC seems to meet my fancy. The Akroprovic (sp?) seems in the same range. Bassani is coming out with a nice sounding exhaust but is 2 months till finish/development.

370ZBLACK09 09-07-2010 08:53 PM

yeah its so hard to decide they are several that sound great

johnnydrama 09-08-2010 09:26 AM

check out my exhaust... It sounds like we kinda were after the same sound... I wanted deep smooth exotic and loud but with absolutely no rasp...

With the windows up there is a lil bit of drone... but with windows down at cruising speeds theres no drone at all

370ZBLACK09 09-08-2010 03:34 PM

I am still open to more options just let me know I want to hear as many possibilities as possible before I decide

Vegitto-kun 09-08-2010 03:35 PM

12" CF

it sounds damn deep, there is some drone but it is not that bad.

some delicious burbling too

370ZBLACK09 09-08-2010 03:37 PM

^^^ how is the ground clearance on that?

At stock ride height you have a little under 4" of clearance IIRC.

Stock height it is just abit lower than the normal exhaust.

370ZBLACK09 09-08-2010 03:51 PM

so if i want to lower the car will that cause problems?

It depends on how low you go.

Vegitto-kun 09-08-2010 03:54 PM

well you WILL have to be more carefull. I had thin tired on 19 inches and it was hard to not scrape my front and back. went from 275/45/19 to 295/30/19

but my stockers back on untill I can buy some 20 inch rims and 40 thick tires so it fills up the wheelarches nicely without having problems with lowering it abit

370ZBLACK09 09-08-2010 05:47 PM

so is FI lower than other aftermarket exhausts?

ZPhyco is right..everything said on this post is gonna be all opininon based..., in regards to the Berks I think that they have changed the way they do things and take orders after their expereince witht the first two group buys...I know that HATED1 is one of the guys that is looking to get the Berks but told that they are sold out...PM Rob@Berktech... he's the rep for Berks Technology that has been really active on the forum...he might be able to give you an insight of when their exhausts are due to come in...Due to past problems with the other groups, they changed their ways of taking orders....but if you can't wait for the Berks then the FI should suit your needs...Their customer service and correspondence is plus 1....clearance should be ok if you have good roads and don't lower your car

On to Opinions...check out this Vid that I just posted yesterday...Now this IMHO is exotic

m4a1mustang 09-08-2010 06:02 PM

That sounds good, man! I agree with the exotic... it's not as deep as FI but it's got more of the high-pitched exotic sound. :tup:

I THINK its one of the lowest one. but it is absolutely worth it.

great noise, good price and excellent customer service which is actually one of the most important things if you want to buy one.

what is the point of buying an exhaust and the company doesn't let you know when there are delays or email you back

craniac24 09-08-2010 07:00 PM

I love my Stillen, but I'd have to say that if you're looking for "exotic" then Berk or FI should be your first choice. I've heard them both in person and I think it would be exactly what you're looking for.

370Zsteve 09-08-2010 07:03 PM

Berk CBE + HFC ftw

Love this most likely will be my choice unless I hear HKS Hi-Power w/Berk HFC or Test pipes and like it better :tup:

BalanBro 09-08-2010 07:17 PM

My fave is MXP with test pipes, but I was afraid that it would be too loud for to live with long term.

Pretty much anything with test pipes is going to be too loud to live with... haha.

370ZBLACK09 09-08-2010 07:20 PM

Yeah I am looking for more exotic than loud; Loud is fine but I want the exotic tone more than ahh my ears are gonna bleed from this. ALTHOUGH I do want to be able to wake my neighbors up in the morning on occasion if I wished too haha

m4a1mustang 09-08-2010 07:21 PM

Well, Berk and FI definitely have exotic qualities to them.

TROOPER 09-08-2010 07:31 PM

370ZBLACK09 09-08-2010 08:52 PM

DOES ANYONE HAVE HKS with BERK HFC? or even does anyone have Berk test pipes?
I am pretty certain I am going with BERK CBE/HFC but I would like to here the HKS setup if anyone has it

Here is HKS with Kinetix HFC on ilive2win Z, YouTube - z34 getting tuned

The video doesn't really do this exhaust a justice. You got to hear it in person.
