Default Test Pipes used with X02

I plan on picking up Test Pipes and Exhaust soon and I'm curious if people are getting alot of rasp using the X02 with test pipes. I know I want the X02 but just not sure which test pipes to buy yet.

you will always get a rasp when putting test pipes, the reason being is you are removing 2 cats and replacing them with nothing. i would recomend to you that you put some high flow cats (HFC) insted. I just purchased a set of Berks HFC, even though i havent put them on the car yet they look like a very well designed HFC. The reason im telling you this is from past experiance then you remove your cats you will always get a rasp unless you put a s*** load of resinators. lol

Doesn't sound bad at all.

Is that an autotech class in a high school? If so, you must be really comfortable with having a bunch of high school kids around your Z. I was in an autotech class in HS, and thank God I didn't purchase the Z till after I graduated. The kids at my school were trailor trash punks! Very immature. One time, one of my friends brought in his RX7 and he wasn't in the class but wanted the autotech class to change his spark plugs b/c we did that kind of stuff for free. We changed the spark plugs alright, but some ***** keyed the shiit out his car!! From the front headlight all the way to the taillights! I warned my friend before to not let our class touch it, but he was too cheap to get it done somewhere else professionally.

wow that sucks.. its not a highschool class though its vocational... but we still get stupid ricers that think they have the fastest civics and want to race me and my friends... my friends have an 01 stang, 2nd Gen turbo RX7, and an 06 G35.. but we get allong with everyone cuz we're there to get our **** done so no one messes with us.
