for my sake I hope it's a mile.

I've had friends call me and heard me coming or going from multiple miles away.

Yes, 50ft away is going to be about the norm. For instance AMP is 98db at 50ft.

You better worry more about if they even let you on the track with those RE71 in 205's on the back!

If you want to go the cheaper route do what I did. Custom xpipe, true dual, 18" resonators with Top Speed axle backs. Good low rumble and I had no complaints at all at my first autox event. Every other Z owner that has heard it really likes the tone.

Got quoted 2800 for the exhaust from Fast intentions exhaust with valevetronic muffler. But then 1200 from Kevin at fast intentions for just a plain exhaust. Anyone hear about their valvetronic before?

I am sure they could set you up with something like that with a custom order however they do not have a valved exhaust in production.

then man up and get the FP option

turbos are basically mufflers to begin with. if I were to go boost I would have the FI kit with FI 3" pipe only all the way back.

I just don't like the way the exhaust looks without mufflers especially with the amuse rear bumper.

A lot of their exhausts sound great. I do think you are leaving power on the table with the Y-pipe design.
