Default Stillen test pipes with Nismo exahaust?

Does anyone have this combo and does it sound louder than stock. Does it sound raspy???What HP should i see? The best price i have seen for both is 1,132.92. ARe there better deals. Also is stillen really my best test pipe to get? I thought about high flow cats, but i heard test pipes for us get better gains.

Stillen does make good test pipes, but I wouldn't run with the Nismo exhaust. Use the Stillen exhaust to match it. Always a good idea to use aftermarket parts from the same manufacturer. That way everything works well together. Plus, the Stillen exhaust makes more power than the Nismo system. And then later you can add their headers and it will all match and make good power.

test pipes with any aftermarket exhaust will be LOUUUUUUUUUUUD

i have the xerd test pipes with the injen exhaust

the injen exhaust is one of the loudest to begin with so i was someone who already liked loud things

if you go from stock to exhaust and pipes it will blow your head off...im not joking

i had the injen exhaust for like 5 months..just put on the test pipes the other day ..its crazy

it sounds a BIT like a fart can but i would hate to call it that...at most points it sounds awesome but at WOT through 1st and 2nd its a bit obnoxious

but yesterday i showed it to my freinds who already think that im nuts but they liked it

my friend was on his cell phone when i was showing them how it sounded...he told me the person on the other end said "did you hear that motorcycle, thats sick"

my friend told him...oh..that was my friends car

anyway..its that loud

Hey guys, has anyone ever done an aftermarket Y-pipe with test pipes mated to the stock cat-back exhuast?

Default Stillen Exh. w/Stillen Pipes

I just put the Stillen race pipes on my Stillen exhaust. Yes it's loud, but if you don't want loud, dont do any exhaust. There are other ways to make power with these cars.

HP per $ I think this is the best way to go.
