Debating on switching from the headers to lessen the drone.

I just got my LTH's and 18" FI exhaust and will be pulling my ART pipes off this week. They are the newest version with maybe 1500 miles on them if you're interested.

I actually have a local 370z that has MD Art pipes paired with his SS catback with 18" resonators. I did a side by side comparison with my RHFCs paired with my SS catback vs his ART pipes & SS catback....and the ART pipe's hissing sound is all you could hear in the cabin. The RHFCs kept all the sound still going directly through the exhaust and straight out the back having guys tell me that they could "feel my exhaust in their chest" when following me, yet having very little cabin noise including zero rasp/drone.
I would suggest FI's Resonated TP's or Resonated HFC's if considering swapping out the LTH's.

Any chance of getting in car vids of that Z, for the comparo? No one around here has this setup.

I'd really rather not do HFC's if I don't have to.

A short "revving" video...

The smoke is from newly installed header wrap...it stinks, a lot.

And yes the phone is just sitting on the ground during this. Someone had to go push the loud pedal. Because it's a phone, in the video, it doesn't seem as loud as it really is... It's not much quieter than open header, to be honest. Love it.

Would love to hear this thing with weight on it on the go!

So #737 shipped on the 7th, arrived on the 11th, and was installed this morning!

Very very cool. Haven't had much time with it, since I'm stuck at work, but so far so good!

I tried to call yesterday about info on their 3 inch exhaust but when I told the guy I had a gtm TT kit and 3' test pipes he wasn't too willing to help me.. I waited on hold for him to transfer me to their Nissan guy but he had went home early.. Not would I expect..

I think there is a misunderstanding here. Dan actually took the call, he is my business partner. I was out in the shop and I asked him to send you to my voicemail because I was in the middle of building exhaust systems.

He said when he went to transfer you the call was disconnected. We would of assumed that you would of called back.

As for you having a GTM-TT kit, it does not bother us at all. In fact we make a 3" TDX to bolt directly up to their Garrett kit.

Please do not hesitate to call us back with any questions that you may have regarding the exhaust.

Thank you, Tony

You want this. It's just wonderful. It may be quieter than you're looking for if you're one of those "my ears must bleed" types.

Bodytechz · 06-14-2013, 09:50 AM

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE my FI exhaust the only issue I have is that I never listen to the very expensive stereo I had installed because I would much rather hear the sweet sound of my FI's.
