In the video you also should mention that it is the stock catback along with stock "Y-PIPE" (as mentioned) as all you did was replace the muffler.

I'm a ricer as well

For the record... rice actually does fall out of my exhaust. Especially under heavy acceleration.

Spork I like your car, its got dual exhaust. I just think the single exhaust looks bad on a Z.

Ehh not bad but you lost all the VQ sound, but more importantly you wasted money
for (sound) no proven gains. Do a search on single exit catback systems and you will know why some members are rocking them. For 450 bucks you could of at least picked up something form Ebay or got lucky here in the for sale section.

Before the Z, I've only driven a Camaro Z28 and Camaro SS.. so I'm used to American muscle and the way it sounds.. The Flowmaster on the Z sounds great and much, much better then V6 Camaro's that I heard. I let the muffler shop take care of it, the muffler didn't match up very well because the old one was so big.. so they had to twist the pipes a funny way to make it fit.

After it was all said in done the guy offered to cut off the resonator but I declined. The total was $450 installed (including muffler), and if I want to resonator cut off he'll do it for free within the next few weeks. I feel like he may have got me a bit on the price but the piping looks excellent.. I don't mind paying the price for quality work.

All in all I think it was a good investment, considering the other exhaust systems that people recommend for $1000 before the install!

How does it sound?
It sounds GREAT. It sounds much deeper then a Camaro V6 and the tone is beautiful. It's not raspy.. and doesn't sound like a ricer.


The question now is should I get the resonator cut off or leave it on? I'll have a video of the sound up soon, I think you all will be surprised.

EDIT: Video live @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-Tlsd6Rzk4
