In before the back pressure debate.:drama: :p

Has anyone used both the Invidia Gemini and the top speed 1 cat black exhaust? I'm looking at getting a cheaper exhaust for my Z and have narrowed it down to one of these 2, any opinions?

Any exhaust that adds power and doesn't sound like a ******* muffled Subaru I HATE that obnoxious ******* sound!!!

aw, im looking for a very very decent exhaust, im not looking for anything thats loud, looking for something maybe very deep sound, any suggestions? >.<

Exotic Speed R1 :)

so i have been doing my research for over a year now and i cant seem to find a exhaust thats like hks/ark where it is quiet at low rpms and screams at wot, but at the same doesnt have a hiss and rumbles at low rpms like a g35 but deeper. any ideas? and im not looking to spend more then wat a hks cost.:ugh2:

Why not Amuse? That might do the trick


"We could do it BIG, Bigger than you ever done it-Drake"

to expensive, anything identical to that but cheaper?

Is it me or is the armytrix hardly mentioned? Why is this?

Price and late to the party. I haven't seen bad reviews for it and people with it like it it's just the others have been out for about 4-5 years now. Plenty of testing, dyno, sound clips, fitment pics etc.

Are there any cbe's that are legal in California and have a CARB # with it? I've been trying to do research on it but keep coming up empty handed..

just wanted to throw my 2 cents in for anyone that is thinking about what exhaust to get. i just got the invidia gemini, and for me it is perfect. if you are looking for a deep tone with out being loud its great. my main concern was drone as i drive a highway to work and cruise at 80mph 3000rpm. there is no noticeable drone with this exhaust, the very low rumble is there but when you give it more throttle it comes alive. Everyone will have their own opinion and tastes on exhausts, but if you are looking for an exhaust that is not too loud with zero drone the invidia is great, and it is not a bad price.

I'm still undecided on which exhaust to get on my Z. My options are as followed not listed in order or preference. I'd like to her your opinions on each to help me decide. My main reason to upgrade the exhaust is because stock is just wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy to quiet. Also don't want to spend over 2k for it...

Tomei single exit muffler
Invidia Gemini
Motordye E370
Ark grip or dt-s

Much appriciated!

Out of the 4 listed I would pick either the Motordyne E370 or the Tomei. Motordyne if you prefer something more tame but loud at WoT. From videos and hearing it in person it sounds amazing. Plus it looks better because both of the cutouts on the rear bumper are used. Now if you want to be loud obnoxious and sound like a loud race car anywhere you go... then I would suggest the Tomei. There are a couple of complaints I have about it though. First, it can be a pro or a con, is that it is loud. If you plan to go anywhere late at night even with the silencer in it could cause issues in a neighborhood. Second, is that it hangs really low. People keep saying that its similar to the V1 FI exhaust in how low it hangs but I find that being lowered and having the Tomei is just too much. I did have a fix for it though so it has made daily driving it much better.. though one pipe is already scraped to crap.

Man your feedback is appreciated! I'm from Australia so shipping Motordyne here would cost around 2.7k....(Would be too expensive for my liking) Whereas the Tomei would be 1.5k. I'm still not sold on the single exit look and you make a good point about noise. I don't think I'd want it race loud since I use my Z as a daily driver. The popular exhaust mod here for the Z is the Invidia Gemini, yet I want to steer from the pack and have something unique...

The first person I'd tell when I choose an exhaust would be you! hahaha (Since you've prob seen a ton of posts by me wanting info on exhausts for the z lol)

Maybe I should just get wheels first since I know what wheels I want :rofl2:
