AAM short tail exhaust installed (shout out to Daniel at Z-Street club)
 
Well I just installed my AAM short tail exhaust this afternoon and I must say it exceeded every expectation I had. It sounds better in person than any video I watched before purchase. I put two short videos up on YouTube. I would attach a link but I'm on the iPhone. The YouTube name is SAP370z if anyone cares to look. I was considering test pipes until I heard the aam bad boys for myself today! It sounds so good!


Daniel gave me the group discount for his club, Z-Street! He was really nice and helped me a lot! Everyone check out Z-Street, they're a big part of the z community and wanting to grow! Thanks Daniel and Z-Street!!!

Thanks brother for the shot out to us! Glad to help another Z driver however we can. Thanks to AAM for working with us too! Some seriously good guys over there with some seriously good products ...

Here's a flyby of my Z with the AAM short tails. *I also have Z1 test pipes and Stillen G3 intakes* so, my Z is actually much louder than most.
Let me know if you need anything else zbeast.

Thanks man it's well worth it! Best bang for the buck. It exceeded all my expectations of what I thought it would sound like. It idles like V8. I let two of my friends hear it yesterday in person and I think they boy needed new pants haha. They couldn't believe how great it sounded! Good luck with whatever route you decide to take!

Judging from youtube videos, its one of the best sounding exhaust mods out there. My only concern is overwhelming drone. I had the original dual shockwave on my 350z and it was bad but manageable. How is the drone with these?

864Zbeast 01-18-2012 08:52 AM

It does have some in cabin sound but it's only because the car is so small and exhaust right there at you haha. Drone isn't too bad. Very manageable for price and quality sound you get.

The aggressive sound and countless head turns you get will out weight any drone concerns you may have

Agreed I pulled up to go to class this morning at my college and it was like every one I drove by was staring and looking. It's the only 370 on campus that I've seen and it's more noticeable now with the exhaust.

My girlfriend can handle it so if she can anyone can ;)

i'm sold. i've got non-res test pipes though... i'm wondering if it's going to be way too much for DD

Well my Z1 test pipes are non Res. At cold start I peak at 90db... lol... at first it is pretty loud... but it grows on you. Since this will make you basically *straight* pipe you will lose back pressure. I did... so your take off wont be as fast. Your top end will do better though. I'd also suggest a tune. I drag mine every now and then, and plan on tuning next month so I wont run so lean.
Trust me, the growl is amazing. I was at a car wash and turned on... I overheard someone say... "is that a v8?" Hope I helped... enjoy the bad assery! I'll include a few pics of mine

I was giving test pipes thought until I heard the aam in person. I still might go test pipes one day, but if you already have the test pipes like you said then I would put the aam on and try them out with the test pipes. You won't regret the aam! It really does prowl like a v8. Also, I'm a youngster the loud sound is great now ;) best of luck once again!

864Zbeast 01-18-2012 01:06 PM

My cousin has a 09 mustang v8 and my car idles better with aam than his car with flowmasters.

P.s. gonna try to get some drive-by vids up later tonight on YouTube!

Skeeterbop 01-18-2012 09:20 PM

I should put my go pro camera on your car back by the exhaust and get a video of it Daniel. Then you would have my video of just the AAM and then your exhaust with the test pipes as well. Then people could hear the difference.

I'm down for that Jon... then we can compare. Did you get your gopro working again? If not we can use mine.

You may notice slightly ... but once you adjust and learn the shifting difference you'll compensate and wont notice a difference anymore. I'll hit 120 in fifth gear at around 5k rpm on stock configuration.

Im tuning at UpRev in Austin near the end of next month so I'll post the difference. In all honesty, if you want that aggressive sound and keep the performance ... do it, but know you *will* need to tune since you'll be running hella lean. If you're doing just the short tails you wont need to tune. If you do get the test pipes don't forget the bung extenders. Z1 makes some really good brass ones.

Intakes+test pipes+short tails=tune
Intakes+test pipes=tune
Intakes+short tails=no tune
Test pipes+short tails=tune

Pretty much all configurations with TPs will need a tune. W/o TPs you wont need to... based off my own tests and applications of the above set ups.

I also have the aam but was wondering about adding a y-pipe instead any input or where I can get a fairly cheap one ?

I was curious of that too. You can't do a x-pipe can you?

darionlear 01-19-2012 12:04 PM

http://img.tapatalk.com/a6fa4344-5c7d-623a.jpgYou can do any configuration. It just depends on $.... I saw a fast intentions y pipe for 199.99 in another thread today

This one will fit OEM as replacement http://img.tapatalk.com/a6fa4344-5c47-4120.jpg

864Zbeast 01-19-2012 12:06 PM

What would be best?

darionlear 01-19-2012 12:12 PM

Well, I'm gonna see how my Z does after my tune next month. If it looks like a bigger y pipe will help I will do the pictured... if no difference I'll keep OEM... I'm not a track attacker... just enjoy extra power and the ability to pull ahead in the occasional race. LoL

I understand I don't track mine at all. I just want something that is best flowing. Has anyone done an x-pipe with aam? Or a x-pipe on the z..

I'm talking with AAM... they aren't working on any at the moment but are considering. Ill keep you posted.

As for best airflow, remember that too much airflow can be a bad thing... I'd suggest a tune first ... let me do mine and post results
