i thought it was worth it, because i installed them myself, and you can feel the power.

many people (myself included) are never truly happy with the way the car sounds when you are done, however.

Chad

i will be there tonight.

1 hour....more like 4. i did the uninstall all by myself and didnt have a chad to keep me company under the car.

the install is a pain in the ***, hands, feet, arms, hands, *****. pay chad to do it.

the droning was just too much, so i uninstalled them the next day. i have the fujitsubo exhaust on my g35 though. sickg35 at that time had a greddy sp2 with test pipes and that combo was much quieter than the fuji / kinetix...so noise factor is all dependant on your setup, but the end result will be louder than stock with a side of rasp.

im sure there are gains with a/m cats but i never felt mine because i didnt want to attract too much attention under hard acceleration.

ill be there tonight...just hope i dont find any potholes =\ . i just saw this guy the other day too. be careful out there.
