I am downloading the vid now. I have/had the same setup and the sound was horrible. I got rid of the Helix TP and got the Megan racing resonated TP and there is no difference in sound now. IMO, the exhaust on my car sounds very similar to a riced out Civic. I absolutely hate it.

Saw the vid and I love the look of the car!!! As stated, I am not fond of the sound of the exhaust. Thats why I am trying to get my hands on some OEM cats or Kinetix cats and the Stillen exhaust.

Not that this matters, but Mike forgot to mention that I have his Ztube (I am borrowing it for awhile... ), a JWT PC, and the MD 3/8" spacer. It shouldn't matter much for the overall sound, because in my opinion the Injen SES and Helix Test Pipe combo is about the loudest you can get. The Pro-1 headers just makes it a bit deeper. I am pleased with the sound overall, but do get some rasp below 3k RPM. Once I get on it though, the sound is pretty sweet.

zach, I am surprised it sounded horrible even with you running a Vortech SC, I would have thought the sound would be better.

vantage350z has resonated TP's with a Borla exhaust, and I believe you can still hear some rasp. I think it all depends on what exhaust you have, because the exhaust will make it that much louder.

Btw, to answer the question as to where I was in NJ, I was across from my job in the Woodbridge Mall parking lot. The Fortunoff lot all the way in the back, not much room to get on it, but you get the idea.
