Install a TP with FI non-res catback and rev next to her. She'll get a heart attack and pass.

I agree it's much too quiet. I even have a Nismo. Then again I may be deaf from the custom shorty 2.5" Flowmaster system on my Jeep.

sound is subjective

1, installed a Berk Technology dual exhaust system on month 2

still needed more


2, installed Berk Technology High Flow Cat's on month 6


still needed more


3, installed a set of Z 1 headers on month 9

I'm good

The quietness of my stock Z is one of my favorite features of the car.

if I closed my eyes and it drove by I might mistake it for a corolla. A turbo elantra has more note then the 370z

The stock exhaust is perfect for those nights you come home at 3 in the morning from your girlfriend's sister's place.













Unfortunately, my girlfriend is an only child.
