issue & rasp after ART pipes

cheshirecat · 01-09-2013, 06:14 PM

There's hiss with test pipes. There's hiss with art pipes. There's a bit of hiss with HFCs.

It's an inherent characteristic of opening up the VQ37. As far as a metallic sound, is there any way you can take a video?

i can try with my iphone to record the sound

As far as is it worth it...definetly, the power pickup is awesome. if every mod felt like this I would be a happy camper.

OEM Y or aftermarket with larger diameter pipes?

If the latter, yep... it's the Y's.

It is VERY hard to change anything on the exhaust side of VQ37HR without at least some rasp or hiss.

Best combos I have found thus far in terms of very minimal/negligible rasp or hiss are either Nismo S-tune + resonated TP's (although the S-tune exhaust is really not that great for power and the Y-pipe was prone to cracking...) or PPE LTH + Nismo take off exhaust (the one with the H-pipe).

Y-pipe, are you running the stock exhaust? I have the art pipes and invidia exhaust and am not experiencing any of these issues. The hiss as everyone will tell you will always be present, however after a few hundred miles I do not hear it as much on decal as I did when first installed.
