You can buy a full catback for that, which also replaces one of the most restrictive parts of the OEM exhaust system -- the factory Y pipe.

Imagine spending $536 for a single tailpipe muffler plus connecting flange -- sounds insane? Well that's what you be doing, x2.

How awesome could it possibly sound for that price? How much power do you expect to gain? It's your money, but I can tell you that the price is only worth it if it's personally delivered by beautiful geisha who will give you hand and blow jobs after they install it for you.

And, yeah, Kenchan, a thousand dollars for two hunks of steel pipe is a big deal to me. Would you pay $250 for a PB&J sandwhich just because you have the cash lying around?

I'm glad you feel it was worth it, but honestly it aint.

Is it worth the extra to get a full catback?
YES. WITHOUT QUESTION.

If you really just want a set of mufflered exit pipes, search for threads by Kastley -- he's found a couple of exit pipes like that for about 1/4 the cost. How much you wanna bet they sound and perform pretty much exactly the same as the Rocket Fairy Magic ones.

Or, have a shop custom make them -- definitely will cost a lot less.

Subjective viewpoint is subjective. If kenchan likes the exhaust then it's worth it to HIM. Nobody is telling you to go get it on your car! It's the same argument even for a catback exhaust, my amuse exhaust costs an arm and a leg but I really like the system. Sure my butt dyno tells me my F.I. exhaust gave me the same power, but i wanted to splurge a bit and get a nice shiny titanium exhaust. do i expect everybody else to buy it? no. but was it worth it to me?

...ooooh yeah.

thanks phelan.

97dB is twice louder than 94dB. 3dB = ~2x SPL.

so the fujimura is not very loud. it is quite loud vs stock but not deep so it doesnt seem as loud as most catbacks are.

I like this exhaust setup; smart way to get around state inspections just for its ease of installation.

そうそう、バブルはじける前の日本しかよく分からんですなあ。今の日本人わけ分からん。

今回なぜマフラーのみにしたかというと下のトルクをなくしたくなかったのと音の面であんまり深くしたくなか った。 

本心あんまりzは弄らないで乗りたくってね。 今までの車は結構弄ってきたのでそろそろ
弄り疲れたというか。 一つ何か弄るとまた何か弄らないといけなくなるでしょ。それが
面倒でねえ。 限られた時間しか無いし。 

ノーマルでg35cみたいな音してくれたら弄らないで済むんだけど。
