Talking Top Speed Pro-1 Exhaust Installed! Review!!

Bought this exhaust about a week ago brand spankin new after getting an awesome deal from velocityjason @ motoring. Exhaust came in 3 pieces, a mid-pipe, and 2 canister pieces. All pieces came with a polished finish w/clean welds mmmm 3" piping... Install took only about 30-40min at a shop and that's because it didn't fit perfectly. I had to remove a metal cover on the passenger side because it would touch the exhaust canister, and the driver side bracket mount had to be loosened so it wouldn't touch the bumper, but once everything was done it looks awesome! The reason I chose this one over the Tanabe SMR is because it's not angled tips, it's straight tip. Muffler installer asked if I wanted to silencer removed and my sister and I said yes immediately with our evil grin, and he was laughing .

Once it was on the guy wanted to take pictures so he asked me to fire it up, when I did I knew I was in for a treat. The low rumble at idle with the car is absolutely amazing. People that say this exhaust is loud wasn't kidding but it's the good kind of loud. A kind of loud that makes you say HOLY SHAT what kinda engine is that!?? This is by far the meanest sounding exhaust that I've heard aside from the Tanabe Super Medallion Racing which sounds exactly the same . It completely changes the character of the car. From 0-4k it's a deep growling muscle car, from 4k on it's a screaming Indy car . I cannot recommend this exhaust enough for those that aren't faint of heart for noise cause it definitely gets through the cabin pretty loud and shakes everything. People always ask what's the loudest and deepest, and I've heard HKS mentioned... I'd definitely recommend this one over the HKS anyday for the deepest and loudest sound. I have to turn my radio volume up to about 14-15 levels just to hear when I used to be able to leave it at around 11-12. Hopefully I'll have pictures and video clips later this week when I get some batteries for the camera.

whhhhhhhaaaaaaattttt...
a sister that like cars and fixing them up?
must be a classic tommy girl =)
girls here will never do that... not even when cows can fly...
with their louis vuittons and little bmw 3ers...

but girls who like cars not just becomes of the status and the look but actually enjoying the car like a true enthusiast is a turn on i think... *not relating to your sister of course or I might get my teeth knock out :P*

It's single mid-pipe with dual exit exhaust. pm me for what I bought it for. If you're looking for true dual though, then I'd suggest looking at this thread:
https://my350z.com/forum/intake-exhaust/151150-sfr-3-exhaust.html

or like jvanquish said, have a custom shop make dual 3" piping and weld on the canister tips.
