Fits perfectly.

Sound is mellower and quieter than with the regular Nismo Y pipe.

Test pipes will be installed on it and independantly reviewed today or tomorrow.

Rasp is the big drawback to puting HFC's or test pipes on a Nismo system but we will find out very shortly what the resonated XYZ does to Nismo rasp.

Any vid clips?

well scratch that.. the helix test pipes did not fit.. the XYZ pipe was hitting the tranny crossmember.. the tp flange that connects to XYZ is too high, def a default in the tp, NOT in the XYZ... the XYZ bolted flawlessly to the stock cats...

im not gonna lie, im a little bit mad

stay tuned though, i will be buying either new tps or hfcs

EDIT: LOL im so mad... stupid bung positioning, tp not fitting, yaaaaay helix!!!!

Yes.
There are actually many different parts that V-band clamp onto the XYZ.

I will post pics of everything but it will be done in sequence along with the respective production.

Try some Fast Intentions resonated test pipes if you want them now

They are one of the top quality test pipes out there. I sure hope they fit the XYZ. I guess I'll find out when I test out Tony's new exhaust.
