Default MD Shockwave Replica/knockoff...

Someone may have already posted this, but looks like Top Speed is making a Motordyne Shockwave replica. Here's a link.http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nissan-350Z-...894#vi-content
Whatever idiot took the picture has the y-pipe section backwards. The only design difference I see is no v band connection, obviously to keep cost down.

*******s...that's really unfortunate. For $500, the quality is probably garbage though.

Looks cheap. Too bad there are so many ricers these days that are now able to afford the Z.

Looks like it's copied to me... Whoever took the picture just positioned the y pipe backwards so the exhaust is all out of order.

Sounds like the fartcans the ricers love. I'm sure they'll see more than a few.

I was going to get one of these but I decided to pony up the extra $$$ and buy the Invidia Gemini system (I haven't heard one negative comment on this system). Waiting to get this installed next week on my car.

damn how unfortunate. Luckily there is no way top speed could provide something even close to what Tony was able to achieve through his brilliance and rnd.

Btw, those with motordyne exhausts or those who had heard it on the road, what do you think of it? I know most reviews say its the best mod ever and the sound is nothing youve ever heard before, but I heard it on a g37 and a z the past month and it was nothing special. Not trying to bash, but I might have hyped myself up too much. I was expecting this phenomenal sound thats never been heard before on a z, and honestly it sounded like a nismo exhaust with hfc. It had a deep, crisp, growl to it but its not exotic sounding like everyone says it is, not even close. Just wanted to see if anyone else thought the motordyne sounds like a nismo....
