Any videos? Dyno's? On my 08 HR I was running Berk TP's and had steel wool in it.. bought it from a guy off my350z.com check engine would come on every couple hundred to thousand miles and go away by itself sometimes for the most part it was good enough. I know these should come with extenders if not I'll get it.. A a new pair of bolts is something I'll definitely look into.

Thanks for headsup!

no videos or dynos, but the tone definitely gets a little deeper. unfortunately you'll also be introduced to rasp (acceleration) and hiss (deceleration). the steel wool trick has worked for me. i used to get the SES light every few hundred miles until i tightly rolled a ball of steel wool and stuffed it in there. i havent had a SES light in almost 20k miles!!! the bolts included are cheap, so i replaced them with higher quality grade 8 bolts.

oh and id say its butt dyno approved as well

Sweet man! Thanks alot. I'll be sure to get some steel wool! Rasp and Hiss seem inevitable lol ! However some people with stillen cbe,meister cbe, indivia gemini exhaust combo w. hfc's are saying otherwise and seems for the most part you cannot hear hiss in the video's. Though I want to keep the Nismo exhaust because I wanna keep it somewhat true to it's name lol since I already changed the wheels.
