I meant that you could have "bolt on" resonators along the same vein as the motordyne, that is, you have a removable/interchangeable section(s) on the H pipe. Take off the two resonated sections, replace with straight sections. As previously stated this only introduces problems at the gain of convenience; you'll have more flanges, more gaskets that could fail, more bolts/nuts that could rust shut, etc.

Also, that H pipe comes together, so isn't it not a true dual (splitting hairs here) because you don't have individual pipes for each bank of cylinders?

I feel like I'm just trolling now so I'm just gonna wait for short tail catback updates.
I like your ideas a lot but from a production standpoint that will be way too much, we then would have to make straight pipes for both 12" and 18" sections, this then would mean you would have 2 extra flanges on EACH side that really isn't necessary but only to be able to swap out your resonators.

Our H-pipe has 2 outlets, and that 1 short connector towards the end. That's suppose to help cancel out and resonate some exhaust frequencies.

Just to make it super clear, here is the pic again

this top side is where it will connect to your stock cat/hfc/tp/etc

this bottom side is where we will begin to make the midpipe to connect to your short tails/oem rear section

here is a picture of motordynes xyz pipe with the straight pipe option

as you can see it goes from 2 pipes into 1, and exits out of 1. This is not considered a true dual here

the h-pipe and motordynes xyz pipe is the exact same replacement. There's goes from 2 inlets to 1 outlet, ours goes from 2 inlets to 2 outlets.


the midpipe has not been built yet!!

sorry I feel like I'm confusing a lot of people here

I think the best option is to either produce a single version that has enough resonation to keep the short tail from being a cannon and to still magnify the very quiet stock exhaust note of the individuals using the rear section. Can't please everyone.

Enough of me, though. I'm definitely excited to see what turns out.

Yeah I must've read his original post about the ebay y-pipe wrong. I was going to say his shipment came in REALLY fast. but he was actually commenting on the quality of the ebay y-pipe and not the AAM test pipes

If added to nismo muffler, will the sound change at all if used with resonators, of just overal better flow characteristics due to constant 2.5 diameter.

You will get a sound change exactly because of the constant 2.5" diameter. I imagine if the 18" resonators are used, you'd barely notice much a difference in sound, maybe a slight bump in volume (like putting HFCs on an otherwise stock exhaust).

I think this mid pipe will bring me the exact sound and gains that I am looking for! Still debating test pipes. Heard them with a greddy exhaust tonight at the car show & it was more raspy then I would like-- oh well. I am picky

Default Want VQ sound? This delivers.

Here is your video, guys!

Khoi, I'm still debating if I want even more raw sound versus keeping my hearing by the time I'm 35.
