How much clearance do you have with the RR pipe and sway bar? In one photo, it looks like the pipe is sitting on the sway.

There is about 5/8" clearance over the sway bar.

Default Props for American ingenuity.

For the past three days, I have been checking out your exhaust system, and I am very impressed. The system seems to be well-balanced and of straight-forward design. Fabrication appears to be of quality.

The modular option of changing types of center module is a great idea. Giving the user three choices (SP, res, and cat) to cater to his/her personal tone prefs is almost unheard of. At past/present, most have opted to change out entire exhuast systems and/or HFC/TP when no longer fond of exhuast tone. Your center module is very simple to replace.

In my opinion, the current dual exhuasts avail on the market are overweight, over-designed, and over-priced. Thus far, from reports read, and presented, on this forum, your exhuast system do not seem to have those flaws. I'm certain that an equitable price-point will definately sell units.

Cheers

Thank you for the props!

Yes, the variability (or modular) aspect of the exhaust system just seemed like a natural feature to design in.

Everybody likes or needs something different on an exhaust system. If the performance fundamentals are dialed in correctly during the initial R&D phase and the modular aspect is designed into the overall system design, it leaves the options wide open to just about anything you could want on an exhaust.

And I'm still working on all kinds of new stuff.
With a little more development time a truly unique "system of exhaust systems" will be here.

Tony,

Duals:
Gamma Dual Ti Y-back $1153
Harakiri Dual Ti Y-back $1875


-The above are complete catback systems? If so, does it include the XYZ pipe?

-The "Y-back" is the XYZ pipe?

-Do you have pics of the Gamma and Harakiri exhuasts?

.

I imagine Y back means after the Y pipe, much like cat back being after the cats. you still need to buy a y pipe, or their XYZ pipe.

gains are very impressive on that set up. the build quality, welds and appearence are all top notch, it is too bad the rear profile looks kind of awkward as far as the pipes appearance goes. not a fan of straight pipes with a tip thrown on, but that's not what this system is all about, performance, the Ti tips help a little for the side profiles.

Yes. It fits the HR. In fact, it fits every 350Z.

With the 8" extention, it fits every G35C too.
