Ive had the short tails for a while now... I absolutely love em'.. But hate the drone.. So I had dynamat installed in my doors and trunk bed... All I have to say is WOW... No more drone! And such a quiet cold start up! Acceleration is also dampened down.. Very happy about the install. I had other work down on the car, some aesthetic mods... But the total for everything was $1,000(including other stuff).

lol
 

one down side u waste more gas cuz the sound is awesome at a high rev i gun it now just to hear it lol

its a high rev engine

So has anyone added a muffler of some type to the aam tails? I love the sound but I feel like I lost a lot of low end torque. So would adding a muffler of some type create some back pressure and possibly give me that torque back?

You can't add a muffler to them... they're "delete" pipes... deleting the muffler..


What I did to get my back pressure back is the UpRev tune... amazing product ... fix all my wrongs... I'm completely opened up on exhaust. So I was lean and lost back ...

If you're gonna tune. UpRev is the way to go....

I'm pretty confident if I wanted to add a muffler of some type I could. But I will look into the tune for sure.

Lol, no I was just asking a question to which I dont know, I like the sound of mine too. Worried more about passengers lol.

If anyone has one of these for sale please pm me! Very interested buyer :)

We have plenty in stock right now. :tup:

I have them and Im thinking they are a just a bit too loud. Is there an option that has a slight sound reduction thats as easy to install as the short tails.

Megan makes something similar but it's crap. AAM is the way to go. Or do the spacer mod lol.

I personally think that any type of muffler you add would alter the sound. If you want to add mufflers back in, you might as well get a full cbe.

Yeah but Im not a Dyno junky and said I would never spend CBE type $$, For what??? This is not a race car, at least for me.

This adds a way different sound to the car compared to a Cat-back exhaust... but, in a good way. Both clean and raw.

Ive had mine for a few months and like any other exhaust I've owned since new the loudness tones down a bit. Give it a month or so.

Thanks, I will give it some time, put 250 miles on them today, much of them were over 80:driving:

This is just a straight pipe right?? Nothing is inside?

correct! the short tails simply delete the rear muffler

Just got my mid pipe straight out with short tails and she's sounds gooood!!!

^^ vids!!

I am also in for vids please!

I think someone else just straight piped their aams as well..

I'm thinking of getting a set of short tails just in case, for when I go FI, if it quiets things down too much. The Tanabe mid pipe mounting points are are the same as stock. I don't know why I hadn't though of it before. I don't have a clue as to what it'd sound like... Most likely bad arse

Will be making videos tomorrow !

Lol, thinking back on what I posted, that would be the ultimate Frankenexhaust if I did it while I'm NA. PPE headers, XYZ Y pipe and Cat, Tanabe mid pipe, and AAM short tails. I would be even more impressed by the fact if everything lines up. I would most likely prefer a 3rd resonator instead of the cat for the hellish rasp that may ensue removing the mufflers. Waking the dead would be an understatement... It would probably resurrect Jesus.

here are the pics and video was not made (due being busy at Nissan) but will be in progress makin the video real soon!!! Enjoy!

does it lose a lot of torque? how about highway run? i just orderd mine but there is no uprev shop near my town, so im kinda worried.

You feel no loss in torque in my opinion.

UpRev is not necessary with this mod.

Highway runs are incredible with these short tails.

Short Tails for New 2013 370 Z in Pennsylvania - Street Legal ???
 

Hi Everyone,
Love the sound clips for these short tail & on a tight budget. I'm just wondering :

1. The people running this on there car - good or bad idea ?
2. Anybody notice any performance loss or problems with loss of back pressure ?
3. Anybody from Pennsylvania - will it pass a Pa State Inspection ?

Thanks for any feedback - Bill Miller

1. The people running this on there car - good or bad idea ? GOOD.
2. Anybody notice any performance loss or problems with loss of back pressure ? Not noticeable.
3. Anybody from Pennsylvania - will it pass a Pa State Inspection ? YES. This doesn't effect the cats to set off emissions.

I just installed mine and I'm upset by the fact that the right side hangs down and sticks out farther than the left. .. I've pushed the tip onto the pipe as far as it will fit. The install is very simple so I'm positive I did everything right. .. Anyone else have this issue? Any way to adjust it without cutting the pipe shorter? I've emailed Paula at aam about it but it's Sunday so I have to wait until tomorrow to hear back.

Can anyone describe a comparison as to how loud the drone is on these things?

There you go..

In depth car video.

I made it to show people how it sounds in the car and outside the car.

Drone is there but you get used to it.

Lol, I commented on some of your videos...
But the thing is, sometimes camera audio downplays actual real life sound.
For example, the drone sounds low in the video, but in person it might sound much louder.
My question is, how loud is the drone in person? does it sound like a plane flying over you? or is it something you can tune out with the radio on volume 10? maybe less or more?

Will this fit a Stillen cbe?

Kind to hate bringing back an OLD thread, but...

I put these short tails on my Z about two weeks after buying the car, which it only had like 12 miles on it when I got it, maybe 200 miles when I installed the short tails. As of today, just a few miles shy of hitting 1k.

The only major drawback I have with these is the fact that at certain rpms, there's one or two interior panels that rattle a little. That's it.

They are loud inside the car at the two drone rpms (around 2k and 4k), but not really loud outside. They're nothing like a fart can on a Civic or a stock Mustang or Vette under WOT. They're just loud enough to sound good and let you know something has been done to the car.

At cruising speeds, they're almost silent. Though under acceleration at cruising speeds (60-80 mph), it can get a bit loud inside.

At idle with an otherwise bone stock exhaust (non-Nismo), it has a nice loping to it. I've had friends ask me if I've cammed the motor. I think this is due to the Y-pipe. I've heard videos of the short tails on Z's with an H or X-pipe, and they don't have that loping.

When I installed them (my brother helped), the right pipe sat higher than the left. We ended up using two or three of the included spacers on the hanger bracket. Which reminds me, we didn't remove the heat shield on the charcoal canister either, just bent it out of the way while still covering/protecting the hoses. It's very light, soft metal and bends extremely easy by hand.

With the left pipe, it was about an inch too long no matter what we did. So in the end, we broke out the good ole' hacksaw and lopped off an inch of the pipe.

Lastly, I honestly did not, and still do not notice any loss of low end torque. I don't know where all of these people are coming up saying "oh I lost a bunch of low end torque, no back pressure, blah, blah, blah...". It's simply not true.

Through the past couple of months, my brother and I have swapped cars (he has a '16 Sport), when we drive somewhere just for the heck of it. I drive his car the same exact way as I drive mine, and there's absolutely no difference at all between the two, other than the fact mine sounds better, and definitely sounds better inside than the piped-in exhaust sound through his Bose system.

Do you mean that the Bose system is programmed to emulate an exhaust sound on start up?
