Looking to replace my 328 convertible, I had a look at a 350Z roadster (pure stock). I like the car, but (yes I am crazy ) I hate the exhaust note.
My days for Vrooom Vrooom Vrooooom !! have past, but yes I still appreciate the quick, top down, responsive driving the Z offers.

So.. Before I cross the Z off my shopping list , is there any way to do the exact opposite of what everyone else here wants, a way to QUIET DOWN the (stock?) exhaust system?

Thanks !!

 

the stock exhaust is pretty quite in my opinion

 

Soundproofing the cabin is another option.

 

true, i have 2 layer of sound deadening material in the hatch area, inside the rear hatch area and it helped alot

 

Add a turbo. It will act as an additional resonator

 

I agree, it does have the best tone of any v6 I've heard except a 911.

How did that help with all of the road noise?

 

I have the whole back layered up with Dynamat as well. It helps ALOT with road noise and exhaust sound.

 

Add an extra resonator on the piping or add a silencer on one of the exhaust tip.

 

big difference, i barely have any noise

 

Much of your hearing will be diminished soon. Good thing I'm only 65 because I'm planning to replace my muffler with straight through pipes

 

are you always this retarded Tommy?

 

I think Tommy is Andrei...

 

not sure who that is

 

Crazy guy on picking up girl thread... Resident nut.

 

oooooooooooooh, the one that asked liked 50 people out and got a single date

 

Yep. That's the one...

 

Our resident retard indeed.

 

Yep Tommy is Andre. Think he got banned on the other account though.

 

i summons ye admins.... can yall check the ip to see if it is the same user

 

Andre got banned? lol i missed that one...wow, even getting hate from the mods lmao

As for OP, +1 on adding another resonator to stock exhaust. Any muffler shop should be able to do this for cheap. Not sure why i didnt think of this.
