AAM Competition 2.5" Exhaust

FuszNissan · 05-31-2011, 04:16 PM

I have had the FI 18" with CF cans + HFCs and they sounded mean.
1. Are you going to lower your car, because you may scrape with the F.I.
2. Do you mind having some drone at lower RPM's? But having killer sound in the higher RPM's
3. The quality of the work, and welds are amazing.

I have the AAM 2.5" Version 2, but I am Forced Induction.
1. They look stock
2. They will have more clearance if you are planning on lowering your car in the future.
3. Less drone, nice sound (not overpowering)

I really like both, but if I had to choose, I would go F.I. just for that pure raw sound. I can't explain it, it's beastly.

The AAM with TT's sounds amazing as well, but that F.I. just has that high note.

I hope that helps a little.
They are both great systems.

Definitely helped me at least. I will probably be going with the same FI setup that you had, once I save up the money for it.

I don't plan on lowering my car so clearance isn't a big concern right now. I really like the FI but i'm a little concerned about the drone. I still think they sound the best but I don't want to buy it and then hate driving my car in a certain rpm range because of the drone.

I may just try a little bit of a quieter set up, like the Stillen, and if I find it too quiet I can always add HFC's.

I was worried that the AAM wouldn't sound the same in person and there aren't enough video's to get a good feel for it in different conditions.

Choices, choices.......
