Hey everyone, Just finalizing my purchase for my 03 350z, pretty amped about it and currently looking at exhaust, really would like the HKS hi power true dual.. but moneys looking slim and not too sure how possible that setup would be right now, so I also noticed the Nvidia Gemeni Dual exhaust and was wondering what experienced Z owners thought about it, and if not that exhaust what could be a less expensive alternative to the HKS Dual Exhaust.

Thanks Gents.

 

It's what I just bought. I heard nothing but positive things about it.

 

HKS or the invidia?

 

Just making sure you're talking about this: http://www.rallysportdirect.com/Invi...rce=GoogleBase

I've had it on my car for a month now and I love it. It's not loud, obnoxious, or raspy. With hi-flow cats, I can cruise on the highway all day long without going deaf. When you punch it, it will make a little noise, but with stock cats, you're not going to be a cop magnet. It looks great, sounds great, and is very affordable for being a true catback. I basically recommend it to everyone unless they can afford Motordyne and the like.

 

I have motordyne.

 

I like the sound of the Invidia, but personally I fell in love with the Motordyne after hearing some clips on YouTube, and it's such a sweet exhaust when you hear it for yourself. The price is somewhat around the HKS mark, but it's well worth it.

 

Hmmm yeah I've been looking at the motor dyne aswell, thinking ima just dish out the cash for that or the HKS might aswell do it right the first time right lol?

 

I was originally running the Greddy RS/TI-C until I couldn't handle it anymore and swapped over to the Motordyne, lost a bit in the process of selling so I agree with you there!


There's nothing quite like it. The moment I started the car I noticed how light (in a non-drone sense) and pure the sound was. I had cams done over the summer and I still miss how the old sound is, but nonetheless it's a great exhaust! For the price, I'd definitely rather get the Motordyne than the HKS, but it all comes down to personal preference.

 

All i currently have is stillen headers and a cold air intake; how much if any of a sound difference you think ill get? vid sounds nice..

 

Here's someone with the TDX2, Stillen Headers, and ART Pipes (test pipes). Trust me, it sounds so much better in real life. I only got to drive with the TDX2/ART for a week before I had to put her in storage, I literally turned off my stereo for that whole week because the exhaust sounded that good. Sound-difference, the stillen headers might cause a bit of drone with the setup and it will definitely cause the whole setup to be louder.

 

I can't get into any power debates, but I have the gemeni and absolutely love the sound. I recently added art test pipes and it still has a low, deep rumble. Free revving or under load. I have a couple videos, I'll see if I can get them up

 

TO be simply put:
The gemini is turning it to 10
The motordyne is turning it to 11
