So I been looking for an exhaust set up for my 08 z (super quiet )and idk wat route to go , I was thinking getting a single catback exhaust or going with the momentun test pipe y pipe ? Would a catback with the same gains as the test pipes y pipe upgrade ? Or should I consider changing the OEm catback right away if I get the momentun pipes? I really would appreciate u guys input on this thanks 😳

 

You know, I told myself I was going to become a better a better veteran member and help those with less knowledge. However it's threads like this that make me wanna go off the deep end.

Search as many pages as you can in the intake exhaust sub forum. Thx

 

LOL… it's hard dude.

 

it is your car, you do the research/homework... gees

I did my research b4 posting this , the point of the thread was to c if anyone had experience the set up I'm looking for specially the momentun y pipe with stock exhaust , I have the guy with the full momentun exhaust threads but is too loud , plus if u need to complain or it's too hard for u guys to help just ignore the thread and don't come here complaining and saying to do research when most ppl who post a thread is bkus they haven't found the answer they were looking for in their search 😠

 

if you did your homework you wouldnt be asking these questions. everyone likes different things when it comes to their cars... what do YOU like? what is your budget etc

and what is up with your typing???

 

This generation and their texting shorthand...

Why would you run a Momentum cat delete to y-pipe combo with a stock midpipe with resonator and stock muffler... the whole point of deleting cats and aftermarket y-pipes is to increase exhaust flow which is completely useless when you're running a completely restrictive stock midpipe/muffler with 2.25" piping behind them.

So yes, if you purchase and plan on installing a Momentum cat delete/y-pipe combo... you should replace the rest of the exhaust with an aftermarket unit at the same time.. Fujitsubo Legalis R, even a Nismo S-Tune.

 

ART + TDX Shockwave V1

 

it makes them sound retarded...

 

i agree 100% on this... but my guesses is he wont spend the 2100 on it.

btw Deteria, we are having a small meet at Bone Daddy's in Grapevine this sunday at 4 (if your location is right by your avatar)

 

I miss Grapevine, it's where I grew up.

I would also look into the Tomei expreme ti with Motordyne XYZ + resonated pipe, I have this setup and absolutely love it. I used to own the Motordyne TDX v2 but wanted a bit louder and more volume so I changed it to the Tomei. I also have ART pipes with both setups.

 

it gets louder than the tdx2!?!?

you would like it here right now, mid to low 60's all week

 

You will never feel the "gains" or the function.
The only thing changeable is the "form",the sound it makes.

 

Dang Grapevine is a bit far for me. I'm around Plano/Carrollton

 

come on.... right down 121. wont be a huge turn out but about 15 ish, and i hate being the only HR (not really but trying to pursuade you, btw the mods you and i have along with hp are pretty much the same)

 

Thank u guys for the advices , I ordered a megan racing catback single exhaust but my order got canceled 2 days later bkus they were out of stock :/ , so I'm gonna go with the topspeed true dual with resonated h pipe instead , it's hard to choose an exhaust for this car I don't wanna mess it up and I don't c a lot of Zs in my town with exhaust done so is hard to tell which system I like better

 

I'm selling my used Bassani for $600 right now...

It's quiet, and has a nice tone, no drone. Shows real whp gains, I had a before/after dyno at Z Car Garage where it was installed originally.

 

So your saying that if he changes the whole exhaust system the only thing he will gain is sound ?

 

I would take this offer if I were you. I have a Bassani on my 05 with Berk HFCS and the sound is amazing, no drone and it's quiet under 3k RPMs but once over that it sounds great. They are about $1,100 brand new so you are getting it for 45% off.

 

you said you dont want to mess it up yet you went with topspeed...... nice job
