Yep, Thats my page!

And back on topic lol. Im thinking Resonators or ART pipes. Most likely going to try the Art pipes, and if its still to crazy ill throw in some resonators.

Honestly it'll still be loud with ART pipes lol, i swapped from AAM test pipes to ART pipes on my brothers Z and to me the only big difference was performance, i guess i could say it was a very very light amount quieter but thats stretching it. Might as well go ahead and do the resonator idea.

sweet car. I doubt the arts are going to quiet it down enough for you. Neither are resonated test pipes over non resonated. Best bet would be hfc or put in another resonator or muffler. I used to run art pipes with berks, now I run hfc with berks and the arts were louder for me.

Honestly, Id like to get HFC.. Just so its "legal" But im afraid my 2 step launch control will blow them out.. Does any one know if any HFC's that would be strong enough to handle it? I plan on Vortech'ing her this summer as well.

I'm not sure anone is using the Mini-Cat's w/ Metallic substrate material here. I have run a few sets on cars that would 'Eat" normal cats. They hold up much better then normal units. I have yet to blow up these... Turbo, supercharger, etc.

I have a set of Pypes unit's here on hand, "just in case" my Z's one go south.

The price is great and last a long time. here is a 3" set... just so you get the idea.

Good luck

Thats interesting! I could just weld those into my Test pipes, I wonder how much it will dampen the noise.

Nice pics, I really like what you did with the rear diffuser and dual exhaust tips. Did they use crush bends?

Default Rasp only in the 2000-2500rpm

I've got a supercat Australia muffler with high flow cats, and custom stainless steel extractors.. Once I put the extractors on the car formed a rasp noise when I accelerated hard through the 2000-2500rpm mark.. I'm thinking of getting resonators put in and a custom y pipe as the y pipe is still the stock one.. I'm
Hoping this will quiet car down suffiently and kill the raspy rattle..

Any info if this is on right path?

I think that new exhaust sounds great! You'll get to likeing it more and more and get used to easing off the pedal and gearing up as you pass cops in town, etc.! Nice vid.

Thats almost exactly how i built mine. Sounds exactly the same inside. Outside dont know probably. You need resonators. After 4 years im tired of it and rdy for a change.

Thanks man! THATS how an Exhaust demo vid should be Cold Start (Inside/Out side), Easy driving (Inside/Out side), Hard driving (Inside/Out side).

Ive seen so many videos that make me angry because you want to hear more or they hold the camera to close and the audio sounds horrible, or they don't even rev. Sometimes your just like "Why was that even posted??". So thats my reasoning for putting this one together
