i know what youre probably thinkin. but no im not asking which exhaust is best. where i live the police will pull you over and give you a fine for loud and unecessary noise. i want to know if someone knows an exhaust that creates a good amount of horsepower that at the same time is not loud maybe just a tad bit more than the stock one.

 

nismo exhaust similar to stock, give you 6hp and street legal.

 

i would but i dont like the big canister in the back looks like it weighs a ton. is the stock design the only kind that wont be so loud?

 

You are way off. I am thinking “Why not put an exhaust thread in the exhaust forum?”

 

Amuse isn't so loud. Then again it's over 2K

 

nismo is 9lbs lighter than stock.

 

Hks

 

Gretty Evo TT, very quite and get you ready for future FI.

 

If your looking for something quiet i'd go for the APS 3 inch for sure.

 

 

go with the nismo. just got mine. only loud if u really push it. great look and fits perfect. have the work done at the dealer if u like them. my dealership liked tweaking my z. also added aem intake new oem spoiler, painted brake calipers to match, painted battery covers to match,and cross drilled rotors. love the look. go nismo and u will not be sorry. lancefan

 

How Bout Borla..Quiet when u need it and loud when u punch it??.

Oh And Hey everyone nice to be a part of the 350z forums finally..Im getting my 350z Tommorow!! Cant wait .ive been wanting it since 16.im 19 now.i really look foward to being here.

 

+1 for Borla.

But I can also recommend Fast Intentions and Stillen with no qualms. I'm partial to the Borla and Stillen because they are true duals with fantastic gains all around and sound great while cruising, nothing that cops will even notice, and amazing when floored.

 

For noise levels I would check the Sport-Z magazine exhaust shoot-out.

 

.

 

fujitsubo legalis-r has great build quality, considerably lighter than
stock, not real loud, and has decent power gains

 

I think some of those results are expired. If I recall, Borla, Stillen, and Injen all redesigned their exhaust systems since then. I could be wrong.

Nonetheless, I liked the way they controlled their environment resulting in accurate dyno results. On the Nismo exhaust, they gained exactly 6 horsepower as claimed by Nismo.

 

Tanabe is legal. The advertise there dp level's to be legal. So I mean.. You can't go wrong with that. And they sound great.

 

Let's see, adding my recommendation for the B&B, here's the results. Hope this clears it up for you. Do you understand why threads like this are totally useless, and flame fodder? Does this mean the correct answer is Nismo? Is the answer on the list? Does a 'correct' answer even exist?

1 Amuse
1 HKS
1 APS 3"
2 Greddy EVO TT
3 Nismo
2 Borla
1 Fujitsubo
1 Tanabe
1 B&B
