Let me tell you this though.
My house (next to basking ridge) got 2-3 inches.
My gfs house (cedar knolls) got 5 inches (i measured with her little brother, no joke 5")
Where I go to school = ZERO - it looked like it rained...Where i go to school is a 15 min drive to my gfs.. so as i was driving east from my gfs to school im like wtffffff - every 45 seconds there was less and less snow along the highway eventually there was none. Then on way back went to her house, and bam its building up.. dusting, 1 inch, 2 inches, 3 inches, etc..
really crazy a 15 min drive = no snow whatsoever and 5" ... that 32* degree line was dead smack btwn morristown and i would say summit. the side 32 or colder got decent snow.. the other side got squat
My gfs town:
My school (15 min drive east)
tell me that **** isnt wack

Thank you.
I don't think most people know what JDM sound is either, including myself. That term is thrown around way too much.

We are all just laughing that the guy that sold you the exhaust has had karma go and bite him in the ***, Tac-M has wasted money, time, and frustration on crappy Y-pipes and ruined his reputation after he told two members here that they had a deal on his X02 and then decides he isn't going to sell it to them. Then he starts bashing respected Z tuners about a product he didn't even talk to first to see if they would make it right.
Careful with that exhaust Tac-M is forever cursed, I just hope your exhaust doesn't bring you as much misfortune as the previous owner.
Karma was good to me, a tuner came out of nowhere and offered me their exhaust and it rocks!

Mike, i do see your join date was 2002, so man, just get over it... i had my reasons to sell this to the guy 2 states away from me vs. shiping it coast -to-coast, and i got $100 more ... it is as simple as that.
i never asked you to pay me and it's not like i did not ship it out to you and you got screwed...
and as far as me going against im's y-pipe, i think that you should look @ the facts. i have never posted thread like that, and i did not know how to have it structured correctly. so it became too long and winey ... but overall, I believe that I helped a few folks. So maybe I messed up my rep on this site , but as far karma goes, I might get some points.

I can see why this exhaust is so popular; why the vendors are sold out, and when one goes for sale in the FS section its gone within minutes (if the person ships)
I would give the fitment an 8.5/10 - some people were saying the quality might lack due to its price and that its a "knockoff" but this exhaust was used for 4-5k miles and when I put it on my car, everything was perfect with the install and the fitment
The sound is great. Its pretty damn quiet in the cabin (No drone really) but outside has a very nice JDM sound to it
The tips and the exhaust in general look amazing especially for the $550 price tag NEW!
Lastly, and what I think is most important is this:
The car is faster judging by the SOTP feel!!!!! I didn't think it would make a noticeable difference
What I mean by this is, the car can break its tires quicker, and from I would say 3k+ it pulls harder. I haven't dynoed with the exhaust but I would say it gained at least 10whp (since I can actually feel a difference).
To prove this isnt in my mind.. My gf came for a ride after it was done (she thought an exhaust only made it sound different, and that it doesn't give any hp gains.. she thought it made it louder and thats it)
so after taking her for a ride.. she goes - whoa i got butterflies in my stomach when you punched it.. she goes are you sure these things don't give you an hp? And I was like what do you mean.. she goes well they only add sound I thought, but your car feels faster too. I said well it really is suppose to add some hp.. glad you can feel it because I can feel it too is was i told her, and I was glad I wasn't the only 1 thinking it made it quicker.
All in all - very happy with everything about this exhaust. I see why its so highly sought after.
My custom HFC are being made, they are not on atm (fyi)
