Why no sound clips of that exhaust yet??? C'mon Taurran!!! I want to hear what that exhaust sounds like since I plan on having Intense fab something similar within the next couple months.

I've actually only been running around on wastegate springs since I made that first video. There are some issues to fix before I really push the car, and since I'm kind of low on cash (thanks to Countrywide's shtt escrow acct), I'm having to take quite a bit more time to fix it.
I'm going to be back in the shop to get one of my mufflers tweaked and a new O2 bung so my wideband works correctly, next week. Then I'm going to be pulling the turbo kit off to redo some of the piping, reinstalling it, and hopefully rolling it back up to PF to get some motor issues addressed and get the injectors swapped out...
Hmm... and what's else... new oil feed line... custom tapped oil pan spacer with new return... Z32tt radiator... turboxs tuner so I can log afr's on the thing....
Bah.. it never ends I tell ya.

I just want to get a general idea of how deep it sounds with those Vibrant resonators and how loud it is compared to stock.

You're going to love it! It made a tremendous difference in my NA car... Imagine what it (and Jeremy's tune) will do in your Z...

Yup. I also have considered the ProEFI, and it looks great. However, after more consideration I decided I wanted something more hands on that is not locked out to me. The current EMS's on the market can adjust to mods to a certain point, so it's really nothing new. Target AFR's and boost sensitivity make it so easy and the EMS does most of the work anyway. The Haltech will give me the flexibility to tweak my tune whenever necessary.
