I will have to check with the shop, but I need to move the date closer. So I would hope to have this done on Monday.

I cannot express how happy I am with my experience with motordyne. I have the AAM non-res test pipes, MD resonated XYZ pipe, and single shockwave exhaust. The exhaust is not overly loud, perfectly driveable, and GREAT sound.

I'm gonna go out soon, and get some more videos soon. If anyone is looking for QUALITY parts, at great prices, call Tony!

Only vid I have so far..

I'm sure the duals are just as nice, nice vids man!

Its a good thing you put those HFC's on when you got your tune. When I ran both my shockwave & HFC's before break-in minus the tune.....she was hella loud!

Sounds a lot better after the tune....very subtle cruising but sick at WOT. You should get someone that you trust and have them drive it while you listen....whole different beast man

Its true. A tune can clearly change the sound.

Yeah I had no choice really, my car was hella lean after the HFC install. In the 14 range. But I think that my car may have some other issues that I want to have looked at.

installed dual shockwave today.... love the sound! HUGE thanks to Tony!

I have two problems though:
1. Leaks on each side where the stock cats and the XYZ pipe meet they seem pretty small, but are still big enough to actually have water leaking/dripping out. We did everything right, used the gaskets provided by tony, and tightened everything properly... any suggestions??

2. One of the tips sticks out waay too much passed the rear bumper... We tried everything to get it in as far as we could, but still had to pull the other tip out so that it matched and they were even... looks a little silly with the tips being out so far.. any suggestions besides cutting down the tips?

If you are having leaks there has to be a problem with the install. Or the gasket has been compromised some how.

And the tips do stick out a little if they are all the way back. I was able to get mine back far enough to were only maybe half and inch sticks out.

The tips are sized to come out just enough to show the bluing.

Let me know if you are coming by my area again. I'll check the cat flange interface.

so after driving and breaking in the exhaust since i had it installed on fri, i must say that although its a little TOO loud for me at certain RPMs (its louder than my old nismo setup with TPs!), when "ON IT" it is, in my opinion, THE BEST exhaust sound ive ever heard a 350Z make... and no rasp whatsoever!

the best noise occurs in 1st and 2nd gear in the higher RPMs while going through a tunnel or fwy underpass...
