But I did install Jim Wolf Popchargers since that only took about an hour. Those with HFC's and my Nismo exhaust. Should sound good and clean. Maybe next weekend.

I also have the Nismo exhaust and I'm thinking of ordering the Berks and JWT intakes, so please post up a video as soon as possible. Rep points are waiting :tup:

Yes, RDGR12 please elaborate on what you mean by 'visual inspection'. It's not like these things are huge or anything. In fact, I doubt anyone would even notice unless they're familiar with the 370 and are intentionally looking at the tips.

I don't think he's talking about the police pulling you over for aftermarket parts. He's talking about getting the car inspected....they'll go over the car visually to make sure all the parts are oem.

I had an inspector hassle me over my high-flow cats on the truck. In the end though he passed me, because he said he couldn't prove anything.

Hmm...interesting. I guess they really are brutal out in CA huh? In GA they just hook up a cable to your OBDII plug and check for any recent CELs. As long as you don't have any, you're good to go! They don't look under the car or anything.

I don't think I got a response from you to my PM. (You didn't just reply via email, did you?) PM me your number. My wife is out of town this weekend, so I might just tag along with you to Forged!

You can also look at Berk's website if you want more info.

just check out your vids man!! sweet!!! i really digg the sound!

that and living CA is turning out to be a problem with the mods i want to do to my 370z.

Extended Drive Video
 
I took another video from the inside. I used a different camera this time -- one that doesn't have that annoying high-pitched hum. This one's a longer one; I just kept it rolling from the time I left my driveway to when I return.

Honestly, there were a few times when it sounded like a V-8. Sounds good bro..:tup:

RCZ 03-13-2009 05:07 PM

OK, I like the Stillen now. Sounds GREAT!

Thanks very much for taking the time to upload. I would give you more rep but it wont let me.

Can someone tell me if I'm hearing drone in this latest video, or is it just because the camera is in the back near the exhaust? Sounds awesome during acceleration!

Per my OP, I will be getting a dyno after I get the Stillen G3 intakes installed.

Hey, Semtex. Thanks for the great write up. Ordered the exhaust and cats yesterday. Can't wait to get them on.

semtex 03-18-2009 01:36 PM

Cool. I think you'll be pleased with the results.
