It looks awesome and sounds great!!! The pipes look real cool compared to the original exhaust. It sounds deep and rumbles.

I'm going to try it for a week or so and see if it is too noticeable for my Corporate Sales job. If so, I might put it up for sale. (sob ... sob) Oh the joys of growing up and getting responsibility.

It looks hot though.

 

Hears a full view from the rear. It makes the old oval exhaust before look dumb, doesn't it?

 

Side by side with stock. I had even tried to clean up the stock exhaust but there's no comparison.

 

that looks great...I like..i like..details please like cost,part number etc.

 

I'm lookin for an exhaust for my 01, and I want something that's not loud and annoying. Keep the car a sleeper, ya know. Would you recommend this unit? Anyone else feel free to enter opinions. Thanks

 

I'm not sure if this classifies as a stealth mod. It definitely increases the sound of the exhaust in the 2-3K range with a low deep rumble. It sounds a lot like a true sports car. It is definitely louder than stock, but not annoying at all.

 

Anyone have any idea how this sounds when coupled with a Cattman Y-pipe. Or even better a Stillen Intermediate pipe (future thought on the intermediate).

Had an old Stillen on my 96SE...and loved it.

Looking forward to this beast (especially with the Y-pipe if not too loud)

Can't wake the patients...much

 

HKS it is! I've made up my mind. Yeah, that is too much to have for a corp. sales job. Sale it to me, hehehheheh!

 

The exhaust looks great.

This is gonna sound dumb, but the picture is deceiving... how the hell is your car lifted? I see the stands way up in the front, but nothing in the rear.

Well, I have the stands perfectly in the center and the car is just kind of suspended. j/k

Actually the jack stands are right where the rear jack supports are. It must be the angle of the picture from where I took it that makes the stands look farther forward than they are. They pretty much are right in front of the rear wheel well.

 

Maybe he has a rocket ship like me! Hehehehehhe

 

have neone ever dynoed those yet?? im scared to get a new muffler because as i've heard, the hp comes a lot from the variable capacity muffler.. so i dunt wanna change that, unless it kan show hp/torque increases.

 

Hey Rocketman! (JK) but do your 19"s rub the fender or fender well. How about turning do you still have enough clearance? Oh yeah is your car dropped?

 

yea his car is dropped... "eibach pro-kit" its in his signature

Actually this was dyno'd by HKS and it picked up 8 hp. This was very similar to the prototype exhaust they made for I think SCC, but speaking with their head of Tech Sales they didn't produce anymore hp or torque with a full catback. They would've loved to make a catback hence more $$$ but didn't make any more power.

Probably explains why also the AE muffler and Infiniti makes 5 more hp than the stock 2k.

 

Um... this was covered just a few days ago.. the AE and I30 muffler is the same as any other max muffler. The HP come from a larger diameter Y.

 

ahhh thats sweet.. 8hp to wheels?? or flywheel.. im thinkin flywheel right??

sorry for so much questions, but one more.. will you get pulled over for that?? or do they have a certificate stating that its legal to use in cali?? dunt wanna get pulled over.. they pull you over a lot here.. fine ie 77bucks.. not fun.

 

Hmmm sorry about that, I must've missed that string of posts.

 

3 more quickie questions.

1) Where did you get your HKS exhaust

2) Anyone use with y-pipe (sound issues)

3) Any "complications" bolting the thing on

Thanks Blew...looks great

how much did u pay and who did u get it from.... what other mods do u have b/c from the y-pipe back i have aftermarket products starting y-pipe. high flow cat, custom b-pipe, and the HKS rear section but i think mine is kinda of the loud side..... i am going to the shop soon too put the resinator back on...... do u feel a big difference at higher rpms? i do!!! hope u get to keep it

 

geez luiz!

 

I paid $399 from Stillen. The Part # was 3302 EX 082. I know, I know, there was a post that went around about how expensive it is and that a Dynomax is cheaper. I always have had great luck with HKS (sound, quality, and looks) and plus its different.

The mods I have are a Stillen Intake, FTSB, RSB, and now the HKS exhaust. I got a hold of the HKS internal document of the dyno, it showed some impressive gains.

 

Sorry 4 my impatience!
