Default Ebay Exhaust Comparisons

I bought my 350z and it came with a Agency Power.

I love the look of the dual and I've searched but couldn't find the info I need.

D5 Concepts vs. eBay HKS Replica

Dual Replica: Click here

Which should I get? I don't want something too loud, I like that the dual replica comes with silencers and it's a true dual. But I'm worried about quality and longevity.

Im new to Z's and I'm not a Z geek (yet), but as far as I know the Agency Power will buy those replica exhaust systems 4x over. If you get them than you will be down grading imo.

Have you considered a bumper tuck, it changes the look as far as exhaust. I would keep the Agency power over the 2 exhaust you're considering. Why not save for a HKS or Motordyne exhaust if you really want to go dual and upgrade while you're at it.

The exhaust you have is way better than those POS's.

Maybe just get a new y-pipe.

I took your advice and did the bumper tuck, took me like 20 mins. I agree it looks amazing now.

My only issue is the loudness, in nys anything aftermarket is illegal lol. But I can say I get looks wherever I go because there is nothing like this sound its raw, deep and no drone

Just don't gun it around cops, I only ever got problems if cops heard it when I was hitting it hard, otherwise they'll pretty much leave you alone.

apexi makes a drop in exhuast pressure sensitive sound reducer for those tips sizes.. search google for it.. or call apexi inc. usa.

I would not normally reccomend these, but i know what NYC is like for this kind of thing.. and id leave that exhaust on the car no matter what.. get the tip silencer thing.. you'll be fine.

thats an awesome exhaust, but if you want it a little quieter an aam silencer works as well, or any ebay silencer with the right diameter

I'd get a Nismo if you are worried about noise level.

I'm not sure what diameter exactly the tip is.

I've searched and have seen it's difficult to put one in because it's titanium (hard to drill into).

Pay the bucks for a quality brand name exhaust or cheap-out with a knockoff from China. The choice is yours.

If you do a search for "ebay exhausts" you will find plenty of people who have had good experiences and poor experiences as well.

I have never heard of this vendor and I would not recommend buying a cheap exhaust on ebay
