motordyne creates excellent proven products, I have their spacer and it's top notch, and Tony provides excellent customer service.

that being said, this set up is proven as well. the owner of the nismo that this car was dyno'ed on replied to my thread about this exhaust setup prior to purchasing it. felt really good after hearing from him.

come across the border and you can check mine out in person and buy it for 450$ USD. to the person that said it sounds really quiet - its not, its really medium range compared to other aftermarket set ups. I prefer super quiet myself.

lol - if anyone wants to hear it over the phone that's probably the best audio I am capable of giving you, sadly. you can pm me : ]

the rest of the system is super straight, but the Y pipe is just as abrupt as the stock one. the stock one in my living room looks about 87*.

either way, it's dyno proven to gain 10hp/tq on a nismo edition, the owner of the test car posts here. I never bothered to dyno mine personally.

here is an undershot of my Y pipe, it's not as drastic as it looks on that first picture, the bend is more gradual to not disrupt the airflow.

I understand the harshness of the bend but it's still MANDREL BENT. Let's compare this to the factory setup, I guarantee the thickness of the factory piping is THICK, thus reducing the flow.

just an FYI.....all tubing is measured in OD!!!!! Pipe is measured in ID. So, all 3" exhaust tubing is 3" OD.

If you're selling yours for that price, I will pay the shipping. As longs as its the 3" single with dual mufflers.

Yeah Ladyzed - I am. I was planning on throwing it on Ebay next week but if you want to claim it, we can do that. I am getting my stock system swapped in place on tuesday (a week from tomorrow) and it will be ready beyond that, I can get the packing stuff in advance and we can square away shipping methods (I've never shipped to Canada?).

I already have some cleaning supplies so I'll get it nice and shiny for you. Here's the original thread with more pictures of it. Keep in mind we are wussies here in Washington and when snow drops they dump a foot of sand all over the road, so it's a bit dirty.
