Oh yeah man, the tax is killer.

things go on sale then when you add in the taxes, it just plain out ruins it completely...lol

I always prefer to use a local vendor for convenience, but for some items I purchase out of state to avoid sales tax. For many items, the shipping is less than the sales tax, and it gets delivered right to your door.

Stillen is like Steeda for mustangs. They are expensive BUT its worth it. These guys know their sh!t

We need some:pics::

How do they sound?

Awwww. Why didn't you tell me. I was down the street at OCC at that time. :(

I could have stopped by and taken a look.

Matt, thanks for coming down and having that installed! Glad you got a chance to poke around the place and see some of the stuff we have going on.

I would encourage any of you in the area to come down, I'd be happy to give a tour.. just let me know..

thanks kyle
your guys are great :)

finally got home in a 2 hour commute in crazy I-5 traffic
but enjoyed most of the ride home :)

sounds really great.
like they said.. no droning
great sound under load.
felt like the car was pulling harder on the top end.
i couldnt stop downshifting to hear the car sing lol.

but one thing thats bugging me is there is a small rattle
when im pressing on the throttle in cold start but tends
to go away when heated up.

the mechanic at the shop noticed this in the garage where the
sound was clear and saw underneath
to find no loose bolts.. but mentioned that its probably the sound
coming out of the berk hfcs i had on.

oh well, if it does get worse then i would prolly go back to check it out
but as of now.. didnt notice anything harsh on the way here.

Is it a rattle or is it a rasp? HFCs can be raspy under throttle..

I talked to the service guys and everything was tight when it left, and clearing the crossmember just fine..

I am impressed by Josh on how he follow-ups his customers. I will be seeing Stillen soon too. I am from Socal.

After driving around more it does sound like a rasp.
Definitely not a rattle issue... Sorry if I made it unclear.
But like I said the rasp tends to go away after warming
It up. :)

looks like they didn't get a chance to sell the red 350z. damn that 350z looks sexy. but i want to visit this place as well. man i know it's going to be very far from my place. probably a 2 hr commute as well.

Great pics. :tup:

Matt, you have to let the exhaust break in first. When I was driving around in the Z for the first 800 miles, I could barely even hear the exhaust. NOw, at 2000 miles, it's completely broken it. I can make a little kid cry if I rev too high! You'll get the real sound in about 500-800 miles (IMO).

Actually we did sell the 350Z.. but it's having some stuff added to it by the new owner before it leaves. Sad to see it go, but as you guys noted, there is a ton of cars on the compound, and we're working on the newer applications..
