Thinking about a custom 3" exhaust

Guard Dad

The standard, non-Nismo, Y pipe is kind of small. When I swapped in my second-hand Nismo exhaust I was impressed by how much larger (particularly the H pipe) and less constricted it was and how its pipe diameter (larger) was a better match for the stock cats. You can often find take-off Nismo exhausts for about $400, just make sure it isn't dinged up. Since the Nismo exhaust is stainless steel it lasts practically forever too. It has nice large "Nismo" logo tips and if you take care of it you can sell it for what you paid if you ever go F.I. If you're into that sort of thing, it makes your Z "Nismo Equipped" too.

Spoiler alert: It's not very loud but you can always do the 'washer mod" for a bigger sound.

I love my single... It does feel like it has a little less torque down low, but honestly it blows the tires off so easily it doesn't even matter.

With the weight savings and the sound it makes, I'm super happy. Only down side is that it brings the noise into the cabin more than it did with the Stillen.

Since I'm getting all kinds of crap from all my friends for wanting a single exit I'm thinking about doing a full 3" catback dual with Vibrant resonators to quite it down a bit with the HKS mufflers. What do you guys think of that combo? Or should I just buy the Agency power catback and be done with it?

I'm running a Vibrant resonator and buddy club pro 3inch muffler. I have 2.5" from the HFCs into a Y with a 3 inch flange all the way to the bumper.

I would be willing to be my setup makes more power than a Stillen CBE or Invidia...ect.
