Awesome, I can't wait until I get mine installed. Any seat of the pants feel different?

Why does yours look crooked in the pic?

just the angle, the car didnt feel any different until the exhaust broke in about 150 mi's. The car moves alot easier with less throttle, combined with the MREV mod it works out good

I know what you mean about the price. I thought the same way, but I absolutely, positively have no regrets. I get so many compliments on the way it looks and the way it sounds

Maybe your income tax return will help you get yours.

Looks great! One of the best exhausts all around IMHO.

When installing the exhaust, be sure to move the small rubber piece (where the stock exhaust mounts on the driver's side), move it a little towards the tire, and then hook the HKS exhaust through it. That will ensure it to be perfectly linear.

The sound from the phone and all clips posted on the net makes the exhaust seem a little raspy but it sounds nothing like that in person. It is the best exhaust i've ever heard , does a good job of separating itself from all those $250 weld on rice burner (civic) mufflers lol

I love the sounds of this exhuast. We have 2 350Z exhuasts in stock, and one for the G35. Its perfect for NA, or mild forced induction. http://www.forgedinternals.com/store...cat=258&page=1

I used to have the HKS on my 350z, it was an excellent exhaust setup. Very unique, and the power is a pleasant increase. We just got our stockpile of these exhausts in last week

yeah i want to know what it sounds like with resonated test pipes

i also want to hear one in person, because i havent heard anything good enough over the computer really

except maybe the couple of clips ive seen of jaki's system and that one black car that has a few videos out, where the camera is behind the car and it gets revved up in neutral

anyone near NJ have this system haha?

Got mine delivered this morning, 6 months on the day since i ordered and paid... hehe

Anyway, im a happy camper now, the exhaust looks excellent and was much lighter then i expected! Cant wait to get it installed along with my Strup headers in the next few months when the sun comes out!

Sound quality in that clip is really bad, but the sound of the exhaust is just amazing!
