Here's mine. The sound quality on the video turned out pretty good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVuhKelHr1k

Ladies and gentleman, I present the first meistschaft cat back + ART pipe combo ever. The results suck IMO. But nonetheless, here it is. There is a link in the description to my pre test pipe sound clip. Both videos were taken in almost the exact same spot, under the same conditions, with the same camera. My camera is pretty high quality and the sound is damn near spot on. It really is this loud in person, possibly louder. IMO the test pipes ruin the sound of the meisterschaft. It takes the richness away. The ART pipes were a long shot. I'll probably get a new exhaust now, as I actually like the test pipes. Since I was so impressed with the engineering of the test pipes, I'm highly considering the shockwave exhaust system.
Also, I have no clue what the white smoke is, maybe you experts can chime in on that. My car is essentially brand new, and it wasn't like this pre test pipe install. Nismo 370Z Meisterschaft Cat Back + MotorDyne ART Pipes - YouTube

As i posted on your YT, the white 'smoke' is normal, it's because the cats aren't there being very hot and removing the moisture more quickly. (exhaust will run hotter with cats)
As for the sound, bare in mind the first vid is warmer and more in line with the exhaust gasses, however, the same sound is there, but you've literally hit the difference between the sound of an engine, and the sound that an un-catted engine makes. I think it sounds pretty good, but get out there and drive it before you decide on it.

I'm going to keep my exhaust for now. I want to see what it sounds like while driving. As we all know the sound is very different while driving. But that might takes some months at the rate wisconsin is going atm. Last year I was on the road by now. This year is just a bit colder.

So, something the vid's I've seen of cat deletes don't show is the car's ECU adjusting to the change.
The exhaust is actually sounding better every time I turn the car on. I need to take it outside, reset the ECU, and let it idle for awhile.

NEED HELP..!!
I'm fitting the GTM Stage II Twin Turbo Kit, 3"dowpipes with external recirculating wastegates and high flow cats.. I was SET on getting the GTM Spec 3" Catback with Quad Tips (Project White Dragon) but after YouTubing exhausts, came across the Meisterschaft and fell in love.. It would have to be 3" the whole way if I do go with it, but now after reading everyone's comments, I'm worried it could completely alter the note, for the worse.. The Meisterschaft would save me having to alter the rear bar but I don't wanna destroy what they've engineered into getting a Zed to sound like that.. So, should I stick with the GTM Quads OR go a 3" Meisterschaft Catback..? Any advice, help or opinions would be MUCH appreciated.. Thanks guys.. |

OK guys, I don't have a video, but its finally been sunny enough to take it for a long cruise. Now that the ECU is finally mapping the changes it sounds much better.
It's still loud, but it's a good loud. I'll try to get video on me on the road sometime but all my friends love the sound now. I guess it was obvious I needed to wait after installing test pipes and cold air intake before judging lol, but meh, live and learn. I like having a very unique setup on my Z. I also highly recommend motordyne ART pipes.
